OK.  I needed the following merge-fix to make this merge work.

diff --git w/environment.c c/environment.c
index ae1427bb9e..a0ac5934b3 100644
--- w/environment.c

I guess I used to carry an equivalent as a recurrent merge-fix for
your topic branch, but rolling it into the base of the series is
certainly safer (i.e. we have to do a merge and resolve conflicts
just once, and after that we won't even touch it---as opposed to
keep recreating the same conflict and resolving every time we merge
your topic via rerere & merge-fix mechanism).

Thanks.
