You're welcome -- but still a bummer.  Switching to a thread pool should
make it as unlikely as a Minnesota winter without snow.

Shortly after this got fixed, there was talk of putting together a bugfix
patch for 1.5.2 (with this & a few others).  Alas, nobody volunteered the
work to actually do it.  This is the rarely acknowledged Dark Side of the
Open Source.
