Hello Dale,

Thanks for the followup.

I'll probably forward the bug upstream, as discussed with
Robert.....unless someone does it beforehand (which would be a better
idea if this is someone who experiences this bug). My only problem in
this is that I'll have less time in the upcoming weeks because of
Christmas/New Year holidays. But forwarding the bug is anyway in my
TODO pile. Just feel free to do it (and mention upstream's bug here)
if you can do it before I do.
