Can you provide a patch? I am just sponsoring twiki and I am not
familiar enough with it yet. Sven is on holidays, so he might be away
from the computer at the moment.

But I can upload a fix, reopen this bug, or we can just open a new one,
as this is no longer a security issue as I understand it, just a bug
introduced by this security fix.

Thanks for your input, and happy  !
