You're right, this is missing.
However, the actual fix should look like this:

--- skins.c     2004/05/15 12:34:38     1.1
+++ skins.c     2004/11/06 11:25:46

      else
         cSkinDisplay::Current()->SetMessage(Type, NULL);
+     cStatus::MsgOsdClear();
      }
   else if (!s && displayMessage) {
      delete displayMessage;
      displayMessage = NULL;
+     cStatus::MsgOsdClear();
      }
   return k;
 }

That's because a message set with mtStatus will be displayed until
cSkins::Message() is called again with a NULL string.
