Marc, that is correct.  Something appears to have been changed in the
code since prior versions that prevent reaching this code in th same
fashion.  It doesn't mean the vulnerability is non-existent, but I can
only reproduce it in prior versions and not the latest release due to
uncaught Python exceptions.  Perhaps someone will come along here and
figure out why later...
