Thanks for checking.
I was not satisfied with my knee-jerk fix, since I hadn't really
understood the failure, ... so backed out my change locally on each
system (centos and osx) and tried to reproduce, but now cannot
reproduce it, anywhere. I even tried in a just-cloned repository.

Assaf, would you please try to reproduce that failure in a just-cloned
working directory?
