I have not tried to use the patch you provided.

As soon as I was reasonably sure that 4.10.x had issues (and was not my 
coding) I chose to step back to 4.9.3.
At this point, my schedule is too tight to risk using 4.10.x. I would 
like to help you
debug 4.10, I just can't spend the time on it now.

I do thank you for taking the time to help me on this Kate.
