Thanks.  First, would it be possible to add tests for these
situations?

And second, your contributions (this and the other one) are larger
than we can accept without your assigning the copyright to the FSF.
Would you like to start your legal paperwork at this time, so that we
could accept the changes after it is completed?  If so, I will send
you the form to fill.

Thanks again for your interest in Emacs.
