Ah the power of opensource.. This post exemplifies why I love open sourced projects, as stated the maintainers knew of the bug but it fell to the wayside and this fine gentlemen took it upon himself to fix it. We have to fight Oracle/Cisco to come up with patches for small subtle bugs at work. If the bug is not critical/widespread patches take forever.


It was fun, thanks for your comment!
