If you can reproduce this with bzr (I tried, but couldn't), please
show the recipe.  I have a number of local bzr repositories, and can
create new ones at will, so I can use them for testing.  For any other
VCS, I have only remote repositories on my machine, and I don't dare
to run such tests for a remote repo.  If you can set up some scratch
git repo for me at some URL, I will try using that to work on this
bug.

And yes, I try to stay away of git, and only use a handful of commands
with it.  There are already people here whose refusal to use bzr is
silently tolerated, so I don't see why my desire not to touch git any
more than I have to should be met with a different reaction.

I see nothing wrong here.

Thanks, this was "the missing link".  Please try running with the
following change for a while, and see if it avoids the aborts, and
does not produce any other redisplay problems:
