Bagas, why didn't you forward this to me in private first, as we agreed

A quick search made me find these posts/threads that foreshadow the problem:

>From a quick look at the second discussion it seems a bit like we are
screwed, as iiutc topology files are out in the wild for one or the
other approach. So we might have to bite a bullet there and accept the
regression -- but I might easily be totally mistaken here. Would be good
in one of the experts (Venkata Prasad Potturu maybe?) could quickly
explain what's up here.
