This is bug#31846. It is fixed already in the emacs-26 git repository,
but this was too late for the release. You might rebuild the emacs-26
branch in your local git environment; alternatively you could apply
<http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/patch/?id=4753d79331f747001ebdbbe9c32b33597daab37f>.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Best regards, Michael.
