Just for fun, this will apply to 782c2d6 (Build in checkout, 2008-02-07)
and seems to fix the issue ;-)
No, I am not going to issue a maintenance release for 1.5.5 just to
include this fix, even though I could. I do not think this is a grave
enough regression to warrant a backport beyond 1.6.0 series.
