Originally submitted as one of two patches, the first patch to use trace events
has been merged, however the patch that fixes garbled output hasn’t been
reviewed yet.
Do let me know if you think there’s anything else that needs changing here and
I’ll resubmit if so. FWIW I’ve been using this fix for a couple of months now
without any issues.
Thanks
