Please file a bug, since it has been found in the latest version (2.2.8)
and a basic search found no duplicates. Please also attach test cases.
If it is a duplicate, someone watching the Bugzilla updates list will
notice it and combine it. It is always better to file a bug than to
leave a bug unfiled and potentially there to bite someone else.
