Summary:

    1. The current implementation is broken.

    2. We have no proper description of how a "fixed" implementation
    should work.

    3. It's hard to fix the current implementation without such a
    description.

    4. Thus, we are in other messages here trying to work out the
    model and come up with such a description.

    5. The people working this out at the moment appear to be me,
    Greg Copeland and Hannu Krosing.
