At this point you should be well aware of my distaste for merging
patches that have known bugs in them.  Yes, this is a pre-existing
condition, but it seems well within the scope of this work to address
it as well.

This isn't something that is going to get merged while the merge
window is open, so at the very least you've got almost two weeks to
sort this out - please do that.
