Yes.  I checked in some code that I believe works.  I don't know of
any other solution currently.  It would be great if you could review
and clean up my code.  I tried to do a little other cleanup but I'm
not sure if I really helped anything.  Reword the big comment (which
also tries to describe the issue) if you can express the issue more
clearly.
