I usually use a custom git built from 'next' with a couple of my forever-WIP topics merged on top, and I just happened to build and deploy a version with this patch already merged the other day, with the additional stroke of luck that I opened a new terminal window (what I normally rarely do) whose shell sourced the buggy prompt script. I did notice this patch being discussed on the ML, and found the amount of changes to the expected output in the tests somewhat suspicious, but, alas, haven't managed to take a closer look before the patch went into 'next'. Still hasn't, actually, but FWIW Joakim's fix (as 0e5d9ef395 in 'seen') does work for me. Thanks, Gábor
