Thank you for an excellent bug report, Klaus!

In local testing, I can reproduce your bug; and it seems that Stephen’s
patch of http://mid.gmane.org/87hcixwkh4.fsf@uwakimon.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp ,
which he has yet to commit, eliminates it. We’d love confirmation of this
from you; despite Stephen’s ‘do not apply this patch’ in his message, the
change is easy to apply.
