bug#19412: bug#28513

["Ryan C. Thompson" <rct@thompsonclan.org>]

Hello again,

I finally got around to testing this patch. I've been using it for over 
a week now and I haven't observed any unexpected behaviors or issues as 
a result. And of course, it does indeed resolve the bug as reported 
here. I believe my patch is ready to merge. Again, for more details on 
how my patch works, see my investigation in #19412.

Regards,

Ryan Thompson
