My reading of this thread is that we have consensus on a solution and
the next step would be for Adhemerval to post patches against master
for review.

I had a chance to review this thread since we had a downstream report
about this bug in Fedora, but there it was a misconfigured VM that
resulted in the bug being triggered.

We should still fix this and backport to stable release branch.

Thanks for the patches Adhmerval!
