Right, I'd have done the same once useful testing was under way:
that's fine, the fix is the same, but version 2 looks more elegant.

I guess Andrew can add
Tested-by: Doug Smythies <dsmythies@xxxxxxxxx>
or replace the Reported-by tag by
Reported-and-Tested-by: Doug Smythies <dsmythies@xxxxxxxxx>
I'm not sure which is in fashion at present.
