Problem with vm-visit-virtual-folder

I encountered a problem with vm-visit-virtual-folder in vm 5.32beta:
It complains about "Args out of range: 6492, 7827" when trying to
generate the summary. virtual-folder-alist is set to

'(("AMS"
   ( ("~/mail/AMS")
     (any) )
   ))

where "~/mail/AMS" is a directory. I traced the problem down to the
following portion of vm-do-summary:

	  (set-buffer vm-mail-buffer)
	  (setq summary (vm-sprintf 'vm-summary-format (car mp)))
	  (set-buffer vm-summary-buffer)

While visiting a virtual folder, vm-mail-buffer is bound to the
summary buffer and not to the buffer containing the mail folder in
question. I changed that piece of code to

	  (save-excursion
	    (set-buffer (marker-buffer (vm-start-of (car mp))))
	    (setq summary (vm-sprintf 'vm-summary-format (car mp))))

Has anybody else encountered the problem?
