I just pushed a change to master (398286a) which should fix this issue,
and one other I discovered along the way.  These bugs may have been
dislodged by Nicolas’s recent rework of this code.  (Not that I’m
complaining – the new code seems a lot pleasanter, even with a couple
transitory bugs.  :P )

I assume that you’re using master, though you don’t say.  Could you test
the patch?

Thanks,
