I'll write up this change as it may end up being longer than 10 lines,
and if I write it we don't have to wait for your FSF assignment to clear
(which can sometimes take months) before applying the patch.

In fact... if this attached patch looks good to you (i.e., allows the
behavior you originally intended) then please let me know and I'll apply
it immediately.
