IMHO the above patch to prevent double scanning isn't needed
and less code is usually better. So my suggestion would be the
patch as originally sent plus the delta fix I sent yesterday,
either squashed or applied separately.

Since Yinghai Lu seems to disagree I guess you as the maintainer
will have to make a decision. :-)
