Short answer: there are no commits left to test.
The list is built in the for-loop in `find_bisection()`. So the
technical answer is: if all commits in the initial list `commit_list`
are UNINTERESTING (including if `commit_list` is empty to begin with).
It's also helpful to study where we should end up from there. We should
take the `if (!revs.commits)` branch in `bisect_next_all()`. That is, we
should print either "There are only 'skip'ped commits left to test. The
first bad commit could be any of:" or "<commit> was both good and bad".

Right, you marked a commit both good and bad. That's probably not very
common. But it obviously happens. :-)

Thank you for providing a script for reproducing this. It helped me come
up with the attached patch. The patch is based on ma/bisect-leakfix,
which includes Ævar's patch.
I think this patch could be useful, either as a final "let's test
something previously non-tested; this would have caught the segfault",
or simply squashed into Ævar's patch as a "let's add a test that would
have caught this, and which also tests a previously non-tested code
path."
Thanks for digging and finding a reproduction recipe.

Subject: [PATCH] bisect: add test for marking commit both good and bad
Since 670f5fe34f ([PATCH] Fix bisection terminating condition,
2005-08-30), we have noticed and complained when a commit was marked
both good and bad. But we had no tests for this behavior.
Test the behavior when we mark a commit first bad, then good, but also
when we are already in the bad state, where `git bisect skip` should
notice it.
This test would have caught the segfault which was recently fixed in
2e9fdc795c (bisect: fix a regression causing a segfault, 2018-01-03).
