Ok, Jens - mind signing off on the patch you sent out, and writing an
explanatory message? Feel free to just crib from my explanation of my
original patch, or whatever.
And it would be beautiful if people who saw the bad behaviour before
reverting the ide.c changes were to go back to that broken state, and try
the patch, and just verify that it acts like it should (ie you should see
just a few error messages, and it shouldn't cause the IDE layer to go
ballistic any more).
