Dmitry,

as a meta-remark, I suggest you do not post emails about the same problems
multiple times. If you with to ping an earlier request, do so using "Reply-To"
command in your mail client, without duplicating any information.

Given that *this* email has pointers to some source code, I've tried this to
reproduce it, but failed. Do you think you can remove bits until you arrive
a simple project, or otherwise provide a way to reproduce this?
