Thanks Alex.

Actually, I deliberately left that out, as the previous code mostly
seems to calculate the same result in practice, just not in the correct
way. So I'm not sure it's worth taking any risk for stable, however
small it may be. We can still nominate it for stable later if it turns
out to fix an actual problem in practice.


Anyway, I can't seem to find this patch in any DRM tree yet. Christian,
did you see it?
