Created attachment 1147217 [details] Proposed patch (version 2)
As already explained on the mailing list, the patch committed by Harald Hoyer (db7d61cff7f5a5be3a56cff39dc278f004b9c461 Thu Apr 14 14:56:37 2016 +0200) does NOT work (due to the function str_starts() not behaving as expected). If the check proposed by Harald Hoyer is really needed (I don't think it's really needed), please apply patch version 2: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1147217 otherwise, please apply patch version 1: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1146474 The above two patches are the only one that work properly and that have been tested.
