Hmm, here's a question for you: The old code was equivalent to "tsv- >svv[0] = 1;", what's your proof that we don't rely on this "bug" elsewhere in the code? In other words, this is a significant behavior change (albeit fixing an apparent bug) from what we've done for a while. You might want to do a git-blame on this bit of code to see who the last person to modify it was and ask them to test or confirm the patch first. The same general questions apply to the other logical-op bugs.
Cheers, Kyle Moffett
