One again, please describe the behavior that looks buggy or incorrect
to you.  The description I found in your original bug report was
unclear.  Let's forget for a moment about the code changes and their
comments, and talk about the problem itself, which must be some
behavior in some scenario.  Please describe a recipe to reproduce that
behavior.
