I am puzzled. What do you mean by this? If this patch makes the code crash, then it is not a fix. Is this meant as "Jonathan, can you try this patch and tell me what happens, so that I can diagnose the issue better?" patch?

Is it better/safer to revert the entire nd/sparse topic from the master in the meantime before we know what is going on?
