Please don't make a separate CC to bug-gnu-emacs; that creates a new bug
entry.  Just reply to NNN <at> debbugs.gnu.org.

The bug in question is not a regression, unless you have a rather broad
definition of "regression".  It is neither obviously buggy nor new, so
I'd prefer it if people work on the other outstanding issues first.

But if it bugs you that much... patch welcome.  I don't want to waste
time debating bug classification.
