Ah. Sorry, I missed that. You're right – this is a bug. My reasoning for that assessment is that if you check out any commit before the one that added the currently-ignored file and *then* check out the "problem" commit with the old version, you get an error message. However, intermediate checkout steps should not affect the result.
