In your original patch, in init_args_command():

   	do {
 		fs_path = &fs_table[index++];
-	} while ((fs_path->fs_flags & FS_PROJECT_PATH) && index < fs_count);
+		if (fs_path->fs_flags & FS_PROJECT_PATH)
+			continue;
+		if (!foreign_allowed && (fs_path->fs_flags & FS_FOREIGN))
+			continue;
+	} while (index < fs_count);

The loop should break out, when (fs_path->fs_flags & FS_PROJECT_PATH) is false,
but instead moves onto the next test (and then back to the top). See in the
original while statement, the loop stops when the false condition occurs, that is,
((fs_path->fs_flags & FS_PROJECT_PATH) && index < fs_count) == False.

My commit message was completely terse, sorry. I'll clarify it in v3.

Thanks-
Bill
