I never claimed to understand the code.  I'm just providing the 'fixed'
source so that everybody else can compile it and use it. If a 'hack' works,
that's usually good enough for most people who just want it to work.  When
somebody writes a "proper" fix for a bug, it will probably get incorporated
into the next version anyway so the 'problem' goes away!
