I'll take your word for it.
Ok. Let me almost completely retract what I said earlier.
I'm not going to actively try to fix the problem since you are currently
working on it and I see no reason to duplicate effort.
If this scenario involved Corinna and me then we would gratefully let
the other person work on the problem. I appreciate the fact that you
are looking into this and have no plans on actively looking into the
issue myself. I may still provide a patch if an idea percolates into my
conscious mind (and, as usual, I have been thinking about this problem),
though.
