FWIW, Coverity also doesn't like this line:

        unode = ulist_next(roots, &uiter); /* Only want 1 so no need to loop */

it thinks that unode should be checked for NULL, but it seems
like that can't fail, especially since we already checked that
roots->nnodes == 1...

So maybe that should just be marked & ignored.
Or it could be added as a defensive check, I suppose...
