Thanks!

No worries. It was a 1 step forward, 1 step backward kind of a thing
anyway -- things were broken in many cases before your patch too (with
very similar-looking symptoms) -- so the net result is still good,
having both issues fixed.

I'm not sure how that ideally should have been handled [1], but it's
totally fair to not have time to follow up on everything. At the
worst, we could have reverted things; but again, I'm pretty sure
things were broken just as well without your fix, just with a
different root cause.

Regards,
Brian

[1] Don't accept (or, revert?) your bugfix until what may or may not
have been a regression is fixed? I'm not sure.
