FWIW, I didn't see it fail in my local environment (both in 'seen'
and also standalone) or at GitHub CI (in 'seen'), so it is a bit
hasty to conclude that the patch was sent without proper testing.

I wonder what is different in _your_ environment (note, I am not
saying your environment is _wrong_.  It is just different, perhaps
the compiler I use and your build environment may align things
differently, or perhaps on-stack "uninitialied" pieces of memory
happen to have different values that the code is reading that causes
different behaviours---in which case it is the code that is wrong.
Asking for environment differences is the first step to figure out
what incorrect environment dependencies the code has).
