Thanks for the breakdown. Should this thing be branched off into a separate
bug? The original problem description also includes freezing and I for one
don't have that (at least yet...).
Would be useful to have a drop-in patch attached here to eliminate the
cosmetics perhaps. That'd enable further testing 1.18.2 for regressions and
wouldn't force reverting back. This message flood is really bad.</pre>
