That's right, it doesn't work.  If you look in sanity.sh you'll
find disabled test cases around this.  Derek and I discussed it
in the past, but he hasn't had time to fix it properly yet.

I would also be grateful if it were fixed, and may even have
another go at it myself (my last attempt was quick and dirty).
Especially if there is a desire to promote 1.12 to stable in the
near future, because I don't want a stable release that includes
this bug.  Any idea of timeframe for promoting 1.12?
