OK, this seems promising (and suggests that 5351 and 7591 are dups).
You referred to two patches, but we need to get them approved one at a
time. Can you point me to the one patch that you believe fixes this
problem?
I think that RTH possibly rejected the patch as causing no change because
he was looking at the trunk; c/5351 does not occur on the trunk. Still,
your patch might be the best way of fixing it on the branch. If I can
verify it, I'll ask RTH and/or Mark to reconsider.
