Hi Philippe, 

To me this looks like a fix that we should consider applying to stable.
However, as it is in the middle of this series I'm not going to take
it via the fast route (during rc's). If people want to backport it
they will have to wait until after the next merge window.
If anyone has an urgent need, then shout in the next week and I'll
pull this version out and we can restructure the set.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing
for the autobuilders to play with it.

Thanks,

Jonathan
