You could at least spend 5-10 minutes trying. The original bug about
this is this one:

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad-foundations/+bug/519744

(Not sure why it's marked fixed, since the issue was never fixed, only
worked around).

I would suggest trying to change that constant and see what happens.
