Very interesting.

So I did upgrade to the latest revision as well
(40d8f83e53ba64355035da78967c994d09a7802d) just to make sure. I still
see the same issue.

I also tried running:

   (where-is-internal 'project-find-file project-prefix-map t)

It also returns [102] for me.

So now I realized what is happening, I think this is an issue with how
Nix is handling packages, I got the latest `project.el` from ELPA
instead of the one bundled with Emacs as it adds all the packages to
load-path. I just loaded the latest version from Emacs itself instead
and then I got the correct behavior.

To summarize this was an issue with using project.el from ELPA instead
of the one bundled with Emacs but together with the latest version of
Emacs.
