It is really nasty to have this problem affecting 2015.11 in such a
fundamental package IMO, so I would like to suggest to merge this and
release 2015.11.1 with the fix.

Sad to have to do this just one day after 2015.11 release, but it's
really not great to have such a major issue left in 2015.11.

Best regards,

Thomas
