Hi, Thanks for taking the time to report this bug, and sorry it's
taken us so long to get back to you.  A patch to fix this problem has
be submitted and accepted for inclusion into the source tree and will
appear in either an upcoming patch release, or at the very least,
Athena 8.5.  I'm going to flag your bug report as closed now.

       Jonathon
