Thanks for the report!  I have re-reported the issue on Savannah:

  https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61234

And have fixed the issue in git:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/nano.git/commit/?id=a2b20a19

(I think the fix is correct, although ugly, but if you can test...)


Your report made me find another issue, so thank you for that too:

  https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?61235

Will work on that tomorrow.
