Oh well, look at that!

No, I can't recall that we ever did any such fix and it probably just slipped
through and then drowned in the constant flood of other things.

Can you help us write up an as basic stand-alone program as possible that does
basically the same operation you do, so that we can use that to create a test
case that 1 - repeats the problem and then 2 - helps us verify a fix?
