Can you test these? - 2.7.0 - 2.7.1 - e79112d I suspect that v2.7.0 would be broken, v2.7.1 is OK and e79112d would also be OK (I am guessing this from [1]). e79112d is the last version on the 'master' branch without the topic that contains the commit you bisected down to, but between 2.7.0 and 2.7.1 there was a reversion of a commit that introduced the original issue. The commit you bisected down to that is on 'master', IIUC, was a (faulty) attempt to fix the breakage in a different way.
