Yes, that seems to fix it, although I had a spontaneous system lockup
while I was running with this patch.  I have no idea wether the lockup
was connected to that patch; I am running that code again right now
and it does not lockup.

Many thanks to Munehiro and Takanori.

Maybe someone else with a VMWare license could retest and then commit it?
