Thanks for testing, I have to look into that case, then.

I don't think that's right. My understanding is that if |s| = |s'|
(notation from my mail, the variables in the code are reassigned several
times, which is a bit confusing), then we ncessarily have |t| != |t'|,
and we must choose candidate to get the smaller one.
