Well, maybe we are just lucky but as I said, I checked many times to
reproduce the issue with that patch applied without any success, you can
trust me. Although I'm also starting to think that's not the right
solution (and could introduce other ones).

Sure. The thing is: Hitman's branch has been updated during the weekend
and my local installation is broken. I need to re-download the whole
game (will take a while).
I will let you know when I'm able to grab that report.
Thanks Nicolai.
