On reflection, the code above (which I happened to have written) didn't
look right to me, so I did a little digging. I think I was either
confused when I wrote it or I'm confused now. Assuming, as always, that
I'm less confused now than I was then (an assumption I probably made
when I made my change in September), I've semi-reverted this code to a
state that somewhat mirrors what it used to look like last September and
am regenning a snapshot now. It will be interesting to see if this
solves the problem or not.
