Yep.  Somehow making that patch felt too easy, as though I'd forgotten
something.  I've done the ChangeLog entry now, thanks for the reminder.

Fixing it properly will require a lot of patience, a lot of bloody
mindedness, and a high toleration for mindless tedium.  I'll get round to
it sometime, assuming a fix is possible.  Note that this code is now the
same as what's in 23.1, about which nobody's complained so far.  But yes,
it is a bug.
