Sorry for responding to old emails again but just for the record,
please keep in mind that LRO is going away so you really should
run your tests with GRO (and update the driver if necessary) as
otherwise your efforts may end up being wasted.

In this particular instance, you're trying to fix an issue that
GRO already fixes.

Cheers,
