Well, thanks for reporting the bug with enough information to hunt it
down, since I couldn't reproduce it at all.  And of course to Jon for
saving me the trouble of converting the stackdump back to something that
makes sense and having a good eye on where the actual reason for the
crash might be.

Achim.
