    Thanks. This change is correct. However, this was already fixed in master in #10245. To keep administration easier, I've backported that one instead: 44a17f278a13ee3257b00b30381f591eb09e0165

    Thanks @laanwj, was looking forward to putting 'core contributor' on my CV ;-P I guess I'll find a different typo ;-P
