This was fixed by e5c69c9, which has been approved for cherry-picking by
three committers (including David Golden).

It won’t apply without e3d2b9e, however, which was rejected by David Golden.

So could David un-reject it? Or should e5c69c9 be tweaked and applied? I
don’t feel comfortable doing the latter, but would not mind if someone
else did it.
