Hold on, do I understand it correctly that this is yet another patch
that "fixes" it? If so, maybe we should test 3.9-rc1 which contains the
said patch above? Yes, no?

Also, I don't see Alexander's patch applied anywhere so if it isn't
upstream, you can't send it to stable.

Please clarify,

Thanks.
