Just as a side-effect:
Yesterday, I did some git-bisecting which has shown a char-misc-next issue.
Unfortunately, I had to revert this change in several runs to do a
sane bisecting.

NOTE:
Can you please write up some cooler changelog next time why this
revert was done?
In one of your emails you did some nice analysis.
Such informations belong IMHO into the revert's changelog.
