GDB.  This message is not present when I run it manually from shell prompt.

A-ha!  Since I never run master, after I read your message, I compiled
master, installed it and tried the same merge/pull and it succeeded -- i.e.
didn't segfault, but complained about unresolved conflicts (as it should).

So it appears that the fix is in "master", but not in "next".

Junio, can you confirm this?
