This is not true, as I had to realise with one of my projects on
sourceforge.

Since time is so scarce on my side, I will not have time to fix  
this bug,
but will instead return to my old "commit by hand" procedure.

I introduced this 'optimization', which turned out to be a bug.
So, I feel responsible. Sorry for the trouble.

In August this was already recognized and a patch submitted:

http://marc.info/?t=118718458000004&r=1&w=2

I do not know why it wasn't applied. I forgot re-checking after my
vacation.

I put all on CC who replied to the patch in August.
