Christoph,

When you say "you're" - you really meant RH right ? RH should have 
caught this in their
regression year ago as part of their first beta. Correct ?

Unfortunately, you are picking on person who spent time find & analyzing 
the regression,
narrowing the problem area and suggesting approaches to address the issue :(

BTW, I am not sure RH discussion is appropriate in this forum.

Thanks,
Badari
