The report scored about zero out of zero IMHO: neither an actual report
of field trouble, nor a clear explanation of the supposed trouble, nor
a specific proposal what to do about it.

Without actual field trouble reports I am disinclined to touch the code
anyway ... chasing after unproven portability issues is an unprofitable
pursuit in my experience, since you can have no way to know if you've
actually fixed whatever real bug may exist.
