This patch fixes a regression.

I'm not sure if that deserves a v2 though.) Right, took me a while to bend my brain around that code again -- I obviously don't have the best track record since this is the second bug in it since I rewrote the thing (with the intent of making it 'easier' to read ha!). Yes, I think your patch is correct, and your suggestion of doing s/has_mc/has_mp/ seems a sensible one too.
