With no answer from submitter, and given my previous
comment, I assume this is fixed by 0.9.11

I cannot reproduce this problem with the current development
version. Also, you were using 0.9.10, while 0.9.11 is
available, could you try with that one? I remember a similar
problem, so I suspect that this has already been fixed.
