This bug report unfortunately never got a reply 8 years ago.

It seems like this was not a bug in Emacs, since you write above that
it was caused by an external patch.  I'm therefore closing this bug.

If you believe this is wrong and this is still an issue, please reopen
the bug report.

Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
