Hi Simon,

it was David Nalesnik who wrote it, (cc-ing).
All merits belong to him.

Can't help much, though. My computer is broken (acting as guest on
another system atm) and I have no acces to my usual tools, git, my
private library etc :(

I hadn't noticed that bug--thanks for pointing it out.  Hopefully, I'll have some time to look at it this weekend.
