One minor point: Søren is on vacation right now.  I *think* he will
be getting back around March 5th (assuming I understand what he said
in a recent message).  So, *if* this is something we want to get in
before the code-freeze, we may have to act without his input.

Your original message only mentioned a long-delay when resuming.
Is this bug also causing data-corruption in some circumstances?
(I don't have the slightest idea what this area of code does, I
just want to make sure we understand how serious the issue is...).

Is this something which only comes up in 6.x?  Or is the same
thing happening in 5.x too?
