Intermittent failure. The second time around it passed. Jeff Walton reported this to me privately. I'm not familiar with this code and don't have time presently to investigate it, so I'm forwarding it to the list in the hope that someone who knows the code intimately (Stolee) or someone who has touched this code (Peff) might have some idea about it. The failure is intermittent, so perhaps the output of some command is not stable sort-wise(?).
