(justification) I thought about adding this modification as a separate
test - and I have no strict objections against doing so. It's just that
I hate duplicating code and I couldn't think of a good way to share all
that code between two individual tests. Plus: We do need the new
version, because it shows backref walking in fact is currently broken,
while the old version would never fail where the new one wouldn't.

Thanks for taking a look!
