Hi Eli. It looks like Dmitry is busy. What do you think about merging
the patch now before we both forget what this is all about? When Dmitry
gets time to comment, we can revisit. The concern wasn't that the patch
was "wrong", but rather that it maybe is a workaround for a deeper issue
instead of a fix for the issue itself.

I'm attaching the latest version of the patch. It takes Dmitry's
suggestion for avoiding an extra local variable, and adds some comments
