Since you have a fix, turn it into a patch and send it on.

Patches are like Jello.  They make everything better. :)

That you be hanged by the neck, but not until you are dead, but that you
be taken down again, and whilst you are yet alive, your bowels be taken
out and burnt before your face; and that afterwards your head be severed
from your body and your body be divided into quarters.  And may God
Almighty have mercy on your soul.
There's stuff above here
