Hey Andrew,

I guess you must have missed the end of my previous mail, I have
verified that the bug is still present with with the latest mainline
release and bisected the issue down to a few commits. The trace I was
posting above was just a random one from during the bisection.

Sorry if my formatting was a bit confusing .. :)

Cheers,
Christian
