Ok.  If you have code that is newer than the 6.1-BETA4 ISO that I
downloaded to do my tests with, then perhaps it is fixed.  Could you try
it one more time, though, with:

8 snapshots / 4 rms  ?

If it lives through that, doing big rms of source trees on the FS that is
snapshotted (8 times), then I guess it is fixed.

Thanks.
