I actually discovered this bug implementing what was literally the very
last feature I had planned for the first version of mdlint, a project I
have been pecking at over the last two weeks. That contributes to the
difficulty of figuring out how to create an atomic test case. If there
was ever a time I wondered whether bugs were woven into code by the
Fates, it was then.
