Hello,
    
Please consider including mainline commit
d0af71a3573f1217b140c60b66f1a9b335fb058b in the next v3.18.y and v3.19.y
stable releases.  It was included in the mainline tree as of v4.0-rc1. 
It has been tested and confirmed to resolve:
http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1428111 .

This commit fixes a regression introduced going from 3.16 to 3.19, so it
may not be needed in earlier than 3.18 stable releases.
