Mike,

Thanks, I had not noticed that. I've kicked off a reg test build and I'll
look at the commit and see if it can be included as-is without any modification.

I'm worried about introducing a patch of this complexity to a stable 2.13 branch.
The right solution might be to backout 968dad0ab1f367a087ff4ad503b511dd0c565adc.

Cheers,
Carlos.
