But upcoming 4.0.7 will not be in Debian...:-)

However, I guess that adding the patch for this to the 4.0.3 we use is
not that big deal. Do you by chance of the patch for the above fix

(looks like it's more and more time for me to switch the Debian
specific patches to dpatch in the current version)
