Nice!
OK, I have to ask. How did you find this bug?
We've seen intermittent problems from this bug for a while. Our break came when writing a new back-end for Windows sound-recording resulted in a 100% repeatable crash. Once we zoned in on the right area, Eliot's sharp eye picked out the bug almost immediately.
