I can't reproduce this on both the latest 1.5.x sources or trunk. Also, the
revision specified in that thread have been merged to 1.5.x, and should have
been included in a 1.5.x release some time ago. I'm running against the
Subversion repository at svn.collab.net.

Can anybody else reproduce Eduardo's error?
