Thanks for mentioning the version.  So many forget...

That was a known problem recently, now fixed in the latest betas.  IDR if it 
was .3 stable or a beta that had the problem, but since you mention .3 
stable, and in doing a quick search I saw someone else mention something 
similar on .3 stable, I assume that must have been when it was.

IOW, that's a bug if it's the same problem, and it looks to be so to me, but 
it's already been fixed in the betas, and .4 stable should be right around 
the corner, now, I think, with it fixed there as well.
