I'm OK with installing a fix for it in emacs-24, but the fix we have in
trunk is not "obviously safe" enough to be appropriate for emacs-24.
And I think the warning we added to emacs-24 is a sufficient (tho not
ideal) stop-gap for emacs-24.

IOW feel free to send a safer patch (with corresponding copyright
paperwork, of course),
