(By the way --- it's handy to include a link to the post with the
patch, or ideally the patch itself.)

Here's the original patch:

How should this behave if parent->value is a reference to a pointer?
Shouldn't it follow the ref, and then behave the same as when it's a
pointer?  If so, then the fix would be something like this instead
(not that I understand this code):
