This sounds like bug #278490, which I'm just fixing in SVN (looking for any duplicates to make sure I have them all), so the next release should fix it. For the sake of people reading the bug logs in the future, I'll point out that the initial bug report was about something different, which is why this bug won't be closed by the next upload (unless I fix it anyway).
