I had submitted a 4/3 for this set that was meant to fix it, but
looking it over I don't think it would apply cleanly as I think I had
only applied the patch it fixed and didn't have the poison patch
applied when I generated it. If you need I can resubmit that patch as
a trivial fix since it is only a 2 line change.
