Tomo,

Thanks for the patch; I have incorporated it into my next version to
Robin, but I'd like some description of how you generated the traceback,
so I can test a bit to make sure it doesn't introduce any other problems,
and also deduce if there are other places where I need to make a similar
adjustment. Could you do that for me please?

Thanks,
