 One of the long standing issues with appearance of double groups [1] was
 finally resolved with 2.4.1 release. But from my opinion [2] (sorry, I was
 not able to speak out earlier, before the ticket was closed) the
 implemented solution of the problem is more like a workaround fixing the
 consequences rather than the fix of the real problem itself.

 The solution I proposed within discussion of the issue 2712 not only fixes
 the double groups problem but also the following issues I am aware
 of:[[BR]]

 • Wrong codepage in authorization request: [[BR]]
