Hi Cyril,

I want to encourage you and others doing testing and bug reporting:
everyone wins when a bug or issue is reported, fixed, and tested.
I'm just asking that when you have negative results, that you provide
information on the "before" and "after" test results of
the patch series, and run both on the same test environment.
