Thanks!

Good to know.

OK, I haven't analyzed this, is it sure that it was supposed to be fully
declared?

OK, I think I have the reason for this. It seems to have been an unfortunate
patch that snuck into the tree.  I have removed it and re-push the branch.  You
can fetch it again and test.  This one should disappear.

If the regression disappears, I guess we can say that the current state is an
improvement.  If so, I'll clean-up and post the patches on the list, if you
agree.  Further investigation will continue after that.

Thanks.
