---------------------------------------------+------------------------------
 The code inserted by commit of svn rev 17858 introduces a potential
 segfault. The added if clause includes a dereference of the parent
 pointer. That pointer might be null. If it is, this code will cause a
 segfault.

 The patch changes the if clause to the not version and wraps the other if
 clauses in it, but the {{{parent &&}}} is the only part required.
