I still have some concerns about this simply based on the algorithm
and that it will come back an bite us eventually, but for the moment
I think you've done enough to show that it's not going to an
immediate issue.
I haven't seen anything else that needs fixing or causes problems,
so I'm going to merge it for 3.2.1.
Cheers,
Dave.
