I think I was clear about what the next step was for this patch in my
previous email, but let me try again.

I don't believe that either Tom or I are prepared to commit a patch
based on this approach, at least not unless someone makes an attempt
to do it the other way and finds an even more serious problem.  If
you're not interested in rewriting the patch along the lines Tom
suggested, then we should just mark this as Returned with Feedback and
move on.
