Thanks to both of you for the simple script to reproduce it.  I agree
it's a high priority bug.  It's surprising that it's occurring without
a selective commit.  It's a bit related to some rework of commit that
Ian and Robert have been looking at.

Just a tip - when you mention a bug in an email it's good to include a
few words of context on what it's about, to jog people's memory
without them clicking through to the bug and so that searches through
mail can find it.
