Hello Arend! Because I have sent another patch months ago which was
still not processed yet (therefore I do not know if regular contribution
process is working) and more important, I do not know how to fix this
issue, so I have nothing to send yet. If you look at the issue, you
could see it is more complicated and I just provided two changes which
allowed me to identify main problems.
