It is missing an equals sign this time apparently.

I can't expend the hours for a complete rebuild right now, and obviously
I am too distracted to manage proper testing procedures anyway.

So it is up to someone else to fix this.  I wasted enough of my own time
and more importantly that of others (I really can't understand how this
could get through again) on this stupid bug already.

I probably should not have touched it in the first place.  The fix is
obvious and trivial, anyway, so somebody else would have come up with it
eventually.
