Then we can fix this bug either by modifying dispatcher-c-rewrite.patch or by replacing it with upstream's TCL code (as is done in the PPA version).
I'm hoping for Mathieu's input on the latter option. It would make maintenance easier going forward, but the question is if the tcl8.6 dependency is ok.
Otherwise, given your analysis and Lars' confirmation, fixing the patch should be easy for a C programmer.
@RussianNeuroMa ncer: Thanks for confirming.
