I sort-of bisected it, and it pointed to Peff's fix.

Running 't0025 --stress' in the merge of 'sg/stress-test' and
'jk/add-ignore-errors-bit-assignment-fix' results in a failure within
seconds or <20 repetitions.  In the merge with
'jk/add-ignore-errors-bit-assignment-fix^' it runs successfully for
thousands of repetitions.
