Okay, I will try to prepare some tests which show bugs fixed by this 
patch. I'm not sure I will manage to split this patch into patches 
fixing each single issue I've observed, because at least some of them 
were related.

I'm not familiar with py_test&co, but I will try to prepare some simple 
scripts for sandbox to reproduce the observed issues.
