I'm with Marco here. Before adding any workarounds, we need to
understand what the underlying problem is. Otherwise we are adding cruft
which nobody understands anymore a few years from now.

Since I can't reproduce the issue and already have trouble keeping up
with other bug reports, further investigation needs to be done by
someone else.
