I orginally pinged Chris about this bug and he friendly took up the
task. Thumbs up.

I have applied the patch and it fixes the issue.

On a side note:
There was once upon a time that one could draw backwards on a wire to
delete it, but one can't do that anymore.  (But I think that has been
impossible for quite some time now.)   Is this something I am dreaming
or was this really the case?
