There's been several proposed patches for this > now, but none seems to have been committed. It is getting a bit silly. It's not a question of getting a bit silly, but a question of being thorough. Daniel's checking patch has exposed several more cases were we are not getting those flag bits set correctly and IMHO this situation has shown how important it is to get those bits set correctly.
