You might be true. I mentioned that because it's easy to check and there
seems to be no matching patch description in your spec file. Anyway
fixing that seems simple enough that we don't need to dig through 80
RedHat patches to come up with a patch.
AFAIK Denis's working on a version re-evealuating (actually re-parsing)
varobjs with no attached blocks and putting the others in some error
state that'll return in_scope="false" at the next update. Does that seem
reasonable?
