article number.

I wish.  In an attempt to get there I've gone from the Fedora build to a
build from the feature/native-comp branch.  Naturally, the problem doesn't
manifest itself there.  This seems like a real heisenbug, but it is also
possible that we're seeing something wrong with the Fedora build.  It may
be best to let this slide until such a time as I can reproduce it more
reliably.  Sorry if I've wasted your time...

Thanks,
