I had to look over your comments a couple of times. I'm assuming that
you're not seeing a problem with the patch I've proposed, but rather
pointing out a problem with some existing code that's already there.

If that is the case, then proposing a patch independent of this one
might be less confusing. If that's not the case, then could you point
out what you think this particular patch is doing wrong?
