When you encounter something you're not sure of whether it's a bug or
a feature, a sensible course of action is to test if the behaviour is
still present in later releases. If it isn't, it was a bug but has been
fixed. If it is, it might be a bug and then you're "allowed" to ask
without getting snapped at.

We normally ignore bugreports against older releases than the latest
micro-release in its series. In this case, that means you need to test
3.2.3 to see if the problem is still present there. If it is, let us
know. Otherwise, we'll just ignore this and hope it's fixed in 3.2.3
and tell you to upgrade to that (completely compatible) version.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
