User Merge and Delete plugin

I use User Merge and Delete to manage spammers on this site. Since upgrading MediaWiki, I've noticed that the merge and delete action crashes sometimes, apparently resulting from an attempt by related scripts to change the ipblocks table, confusing the ipb_id with the user_id. Note in the following output from a merge and delete that ipblocks is modified twice, even though I think it only appears once in the update sequence in the script body:
