Correct. In working on the rootfs change I noticed that the default case
falls through to the open using the 'name' value set from the previous
origin so it is tried twice. This patch fixes that bug.

I also noted that the BUILD_ID_CACHE was skipped, but I was not sure if
that was desired or not. If it is then correcting the proper 'next
origin' is another trivial bug fix.

Some projects like single focused bug fixes for bisecting. I am fine
with combining if that is wanted.
