 Presently, no checking options are enabled on the 3.2.2 branch. So I 
 assume the same holds for the snapshot with which I tested. The fact that 
 I did not see the bug on the 3.2 branch does not mean anything thus. 
 Rather, Christian's observation holds, and I will update the synopsis of 
 the report. 
 
 I checked with my compiler collection, and it turns out that the bug was 
 introduced between 2002-01-15 and 2002-02-01.
