It looks like this patch has introduced a regression with autopkgtest,
see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2056461

I haven't looked at the details yet, I just did some bisecting and
apparently reverting this one seems to fix the problem.

Let me know if you want me to test something in particular or if you
already have a potential fix. Otherwise I'll take a look.

Thanks,
