Brian,

I haven't run it, but looking through the code this appears to be a
regression I added in 2.4.1 / current trunk (introduced in r9720 [1]).
I've opened issue 18939 and attached some patches if you want to try
them.  That way I can add your reported by / tested-by information if
you would like.
