The first two patches are preparation for the third patch, which fixes the actual bug. Of course, I could have done everything in one patch, but I thought splitting the first two out makes review easier. This way, every step is almost trivial. If you want me to fold the three patches into one, I can do that. But I can't reorder them (or backport only the bug fix to stable). Max
