This problem should be fixed on Emacs master and emacs-25, as well as in 
the current release candidate for Emacs 25 
<ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/pretest/emacs-25.1-rc1.tar.xz>. If you're 
still observing the problem in any of these editions of Emacs, please 
let us know. In the meantime I will close the bug report as I think this 
bug is fixed now.
