I like to push this, because I believe it is correct and the current
code is wrong. But I don't know whether I am missing something. Please
let me know if you still think there is something obviously wrong with
the fix.
For now I have pushed this fix to master since the original code is
wrong and I believe the fix is the clearest way I could write it. But
please let me know if I missed something.
Thanks,
Mark
