I briefly looked into this, and did not find out why it is behaving that way. It _should_ pick the closer one with this code: } else if (name->merge_traversals > merge_traversals || (name->merge_traversals == merge_traversals && name->generation > generation)) { However, it did not even get to that code in my tests. I'll have to look at that problem closer in a quiet moment (which I will not have for at least another 24 hours).
