Yes, exactly that.  I have stopped using multiple machines for a year
now, so I do not have an example at the moment.  My history is pretty
linear these days :).  If I can find the time, I will try work up an
example, but that is a big if.

That said, I think you might be right.  Possibly it could be resolved by
just changing the algorithm, I don't know why I never tried that though.

Cheers,
