Heh, let's try not to waste duplicated efforts by being silent next
time, OK? Winning such a race by 5 minutes does not buy us much.
I wish we had some type safe way to say "This uint and the other
uint are to hold different kinds of flag bits; do not mix them by
bitwise operators".
Thanks.

What was happening was that the remotes/origin/HEAD symref happened
to point at the same commit as "master", and ^master that was in the
pending array was not transferred to the commit list used by the
revision traversal.
What's interesting still is that
git checkout master~
git checkout master
does not exhibit this problem in the same repository.
