Indeed, this soudns exactly like another bug that was reported at least
once a few months back. I applied a patch that was supposed to help with
the problem, but apparently it wasn't the fix that we'd hoped for. Sorry,
I don't have time to track down the original bug numbers right now, but I
can try and fetch them if people want.
