I haven't followed multi_array lately, but the last merge from trunk to release was in 2007 (when I last checked mid of this year), even so there have been fixes on trunk. So before applying this patch, merging the current trunk to release might be a good idea. I don't think there was any specific reason (or problem) why multi_array changes weren't merged to release, except probably lack of time.

In case the trunk version of multi_array has been merged to release in the meantime, please ignore this message.
