I fetch from master ... and did get an update.

It has that now. When I refetched yesterday, the head of sfi-test branch
was c24b5f47a66895c2f2ac6e8b665c94f7854e32b4 ("SFI: work around ppc build
failure") which is the commit before the above one.

It doesn't matter, hopefully it will be better today.

Will do.
