I suspect it is something to with a custom patched plugin being upgraded to
the supported one but not correctly updating the existing job configs.

Certainly it does result in a small amount of changes to the XML around
config associated with the plugin. Why this is not happening when I ran it
through the script console I have no idea, but saving via the UI seems to
fix the problem.
