On a second thought, I've been unable to find a way to document Jason's
workaround that doesn't sound cumbersome and clumsy; so maybe it's better
to just drop this documentation change.

Still, having a test case verifying that such a workaround actually works
is still worthwhile and easy to do.  This is what the attached patch does.
I will push it this evening or tomorrow if there is no objection.
