Well, that was certainly interesting. I guess it helps, but I'm not
quite sure why... see the typescript below to see what I mean.
Essentially, nothing changed -- except that now it works. I dunno...
Feel free to close this now; although, if you would like me to do some
more investigation I'd be happy to assist in any way I can.
Of course, now I have a different, unrelated problem. I guess it's time
for another bug report.
