Okay, but see below.

Bug#64989 is the same bug, only the recipe differs.  And the change I 
suggested six months ago is safe, it replaces an obscure and bugged piece 
of code with a refactored and clear piece of code.  I attach it again 
(that patch is for emacs-29, the one for master would be similar).

If Stefan (or anyone else) fixes the bug in a safer way, that patch is not 
necessary.
