I have applied the patch below to branch-1-5. Please excuse my
ignorance of the usual commit rules at the moment, I definitely
want 1.5.18 out today, and mailing list latency is on the order
of 24 hours, as far as I can see.
I'm happy ot discuss a nicer version of this patch for branch-2-0
and HEAD.
Regards,
Ralf
