The patch applied by the port appears bogus. It adds braces around an
"if" that stops it executing the way it was intended. I've a sneaking
suspicion that the braces were added for "clarity", but the indentation
in the original file is so badly off that the terminating brace was put
in the wrong place. Try replacing patch-ab with this:
