Since there may be other bugs involved I think we need to go with the 
simple solution first.  After the other bugs are ironed out we may move 
to a more complicated method.  But the only reason we'd really want to 
do so is for speed, and that hasn't been measured (and the difference is 
probably negligible).

In the meantime we need a patch to fix the infinite loop.  It should be 
put under a new ticket (which refers to this one, of course).
