Carsten told me (on the phone) that indeed it /looks/ as if this is
causing the problem. He'll send a patch when he is sure.
The root cause is, of course, the completely unnecessary circumvention
of type checking in the methods of struct rset (and similarly for dset,
drvet, etc).
I see that even in 3.16 this has not changed.
