It's not a choice between these two patches.  I think we need Arnd's
patch, because we know that fixes Romain Izard's problem.  If I apply
just your patch, then Gregory stops complaining, and there'll be
nothing to remind us of this issue - Romain isn't shouting about it.
That's a problem, because it's a real bug that then gets forgotten
about.

Or do we have evidence that your patch fixes Romain Izard's problem
as well?  I don't see any such suggestion.

So, let me go back to the dart board... I just don't have the
information to be able to make any decision on this, so stop asking
me for a decision on something I know nothing about.  Either provide
me with some information I can base a decision on, or stop asking
for a decision.
