AFAICT this never worked, as it seems I did the rework in SMD while we
tried to figure out the dependency issues we had with moving to SMD. So
v4.9 through v4.11 has SMD support - with this bug.
How do I proceed, do you want me to write up a fix for stable@? Do I
send that out as an ordinary patch?
