Thanks for the bisect and detailed reproduction instructions. I am looking at this now and it seems to be related to another problem reported by Kent Overstreet where he was seeing symlink loop reports that were disrupting his testing environment. Once I'm able to reproduce, I'll try and get a patch out later today, if not I may revert the commit to keep from disrupting folks' testing environments.
