Thanks. That particular change is already committed to trunk, so
updating should fix that case.

Mark has mentioned that he may lock-down trunk from time to time to
fix regressions. I think it would be better to commit this patch at
the start of one such lock-down, so we are sure that any failures are
discovered are due to the patch and not some regression. On the other
hand, I would like to commit it as soon as possible, to not give any
opportunity to other test to break meanwhile.

Cheers,

Manuel.
