I'll fix this and wait for more comments (or a few days) before sending
a new version.

It was actually useful at this place during development of this patch
because we could check any unexpected change in behavior when resuming.
We did catch a bug because of this and fixed.
I'm not sure if now it makes more sense to move to probe method. I'd
leave it where it is, but I'm open to move it there.
