Sure, I'd like to know why it's behaving badly. But since we're so close to
9.2-REL, do you think you can get it sorted out and bug-free on all the
existing platforms that people are using 9.2 on (including server, desktop
and laptop) without reverting it?

Reverting and fixing it later seems like the safest option to me. Is there
a bigger problem that you tried to fix in that patch that wasn't as obvious?

Thanks,
