It's been a while since I created the patch, and the originally
failing configuration currently doesn't produce this (probably
because something else changed). I remember that it was something
rather subtle, but don't exactly remember what happened.

I've reverted the patch now, trying to reproduce it on my
randconfig setup, but I might not be able to get back to you
in the next week while I'm traveling.
