I have marked this bug as fixed, because Alex has written some patches that, indeed, fix it. But these will be held back until after the code freeze, so the bug is still actually present in the current code. Would it be preferable to reopen it, therefore, until the patches are actually applied?
Thanks,

Bug should be marked as fixed *only* after a fix has been committed. So if it isn't committed yet it should stay open.

The bug should stay open and the fix patches be attached to the bug in case someone else wishes to incorporate them into a private build.
