Wow.

This is a bug that is hard to trigger by just using the software
(you have to be doubly insane to be on an unborn branch and pushing
out a branch that is not the one you are currently on) and one has
to look at the code to hunt for it.

The fix looks correct.  Thank you very much for spotting.
