Question for shorters.

Say you short a stock and it splits, you have to cover your position including the shares from the split.

Now, say you short a stock that pays a stock dividend. When those shares are paid out, do they go to the owner's account or does the shorter become obligated to cover the dividend shares along with the original shares borrowed?
