After testing it I see that patch wasn't right and that the patch you 
proposed was better. However, I now see another bug in this area. So I 
installed the attached three patches. The first two add a test case and 
fix for the other bug; the third one is very close to your patch so I'm 
giving you author credit (it's small enough to not require copyright 
paperwork).

Thanks again for reporting this.
