That's pretty odd, but ...

... you're not going to get a lot of interest in supporting a release series
that's been EOL for nearly two years, especially when you're a dozen minor
releases behind even in that series (the last 8.2 release was 8.2.23).
You are *way* overdue for an update.

If you can still reproduce this problem in a currently-supported release,
we'll definitely take an interest.
