On the off-chance that it is at all helpful, I have added the commit
shown below to -rcu.  If it helps, I am happy to push this, but am
just as happy to drop it in favor of some other fix.  If at all possible,
I would like to get this into the upcoming merge window.

                                                        Thanx, Paul
