Hello,

This was actually issued quite a long ago.
I just tried a new time with my current system, and the problem does not 
appear any more. To be frank, I had even forgotten about the bug report.
I guess the report can be closed, it must have been star alignment 
issues in June :)

Sorry for the false bug and thanks for your time

Camille
