I'm not sure what's going on there. All of that stuff used to work fine, so
I'm kind of suspicious that perhaps some recent changes to fix something in
attribute handling has broken this. Can someone go back to 1.3 or something
and confirm whether this is broken there? I'm taking a wild guess that it
might work, in which case finding the culprit becomes a diff of the
attribute processing code.
