I applied the patch to 5.13.9, and it did indeed solve the problem.

Thank you very much!

For future reference, if I am reporting an issue with stable and I know the
commit that caused it, should I contact the committer directly *and* cc the
stable and regressions list?

I'm trying to keep protocol and not spam things up too much.

Thanks,
Jeff
