Hmm. I don't completely follow, but does this explain why waf always succeeds on the second attempt? If not, it might be something weirder... but then again, if you're following it up on the waf-user list, then it's no longer my concern. > Does the attached patch convince you to go on on Waf?

If it works, I'll spend another few hours on waf -- particularly, trying out things that are more likely to fail. If you're willing to follow up on any more cases like this, then I think I'll be willing to keep on waffing.
