It only fixes the new functionality. If a git bisect gets here for that,
then we know the issue already. But it shouldn't break bisect for things
that happened before this change.
The reason I'm not merging this with the other patch is because the
original patch is from Tzvetomir, who isn't working on this anymore. I want
to keep his patches untouched, and anything I do is on top of it.
