Krogoth has the same failure. I reproduced using the current release and with krogoth-next I am preparing for pull request.

This fix should be back ported to krogoth but it is not clear exactly were.

Should this bug be re-opened or a new one for krogoth?

I back ported this fix for Krogoth and is appears to fix the problem there too.
