Huh.  Git bisect would have heeded the _topological_ order and would
have made it more likely you'd have found the correct commit.  There is
a git bisect command for reporting an untestable commit, namely "git
bisect skip".

So my best guess is that the change I identified is the culprit here and
that your homegrown bisection did not produce the right commit.

As you can see, the commit you identified is _chronologically_ just
above a commit in the other branch, but both branches have a long
separate history of commits by which they differ previous to that.

Thanks.  I'd almost reached that conclusion based on my own look at
git log --graph.  I'm starting a "proper" bisect now, rebuilding the
binaries and docs from scratch for each step.  Should give the
processor a decent work-out.  Catch you in a few hours...

Let's cut this short.  Test this patch first.  If it fixes the problem,
the bisection is pointless.


That fixes it.  Can you push the patch to staging?
