That's fair, and I agree that it should be equivalent in practice.
As a matter of style, though, I might declare comp_mask as

Sounds good.

I'm not sure what specifically about my installation triggered this
behavior. FWIW, when aptitude 0.8.5-1 hit testing three weeks ago, I
decided to try switching back to a stock build, and haven't seen any
trouble on this front since. However, it's probably still best to
defend against the possibility, so please do proceed here.
Thanks!
