The first two patches are preparation for the third patch, which fixes
the actual bug.

Of course, I could have done everything in one patch, but I thought
splitting the first two out makes review easier.  This way, every step
is almost trivial.

If you want me to fold the three patches into one, I can do that.  But
I can't reorder them (or backport only the bug fix to stable).
