  Current serial number in output stream:  6525

The exact problem was filed/discussed a loong time ago at:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=199770

for w/c this patch is shamelessly taken ;-)

Fix: See patch (shamelessly obtained from RH bugzilla ;-)

Patch attached with submission follows:
How-To-Repeat: Install editors/nedit. Run nedit. Do file->open or file->save. It will crash nedit. Very annoying.
