Hi Dave,

the previous NULL pointer fix was doing more harm than good. It broke on
a couple of systems. Unfortunately mine was running fine for no real
apparent reason. I guess just pure luck.

Problem was really that we tried to work around an issue that was no
longer the original issue since that got fixed. However it revealed
clearly our broken thinking and it should be now fixed for good.

The patch looks bigger than it actually is since I had to move some
functions around. We have three testers that confirmed that this patch
fixes the actual problems.

Regards

Marcel
