Hold the front page.  It's a bug that's already been reported in RQCC, as 
#7142, reported against 3.0GM2 - and resolved fixed.  Oh no it's not fixed, I 
retorted angrily, opening a new report.... and then I discovered that I've 
recently accidentally been running 3.0GM2, instead of 3.0GM3.  Easy to do as 
they share the same build number (presumably because the engne is the same, 
the only changes are in supporting stacks). Indeed at least for me the bug is 
fixed in GM3.

So Sivakatirswami, perhaps double check that you are running GM3, and not GM2 
as I was.
