 Yes, I could reproduce this with mainline. I just checked again, it's fine 
 now on mainline, but it still takes forever on the 3.3 branch. However, 
 for well known reasons I can't update my 3.3 copy, which is still of 
 2003-03-05. Likewise, my 3.2 copy (from 2003-01-24).
 
 So, it seems as if this is fixed on mainline. I'll change the synopsis 
 accordingly. Can anyone double check with the other two branches and newer 
 versions than mine?
 
 Thanks
   W.
