Thanks for your patch.  When I tried to apply the patch, I found that a
very similar patch from Jakub Bogusz had already been applied, but not
documented in the ChangeLog, nor put in the development zipfile.  That
explains why I couldn't reproduce the bug; it was already fixed.

I apologize for my forgetfulness.  I will do a release before the end of
the year.

The development version is updated:
