Oh that's new... that's a regression in 1.7.1, so thanks for finding it.

Hey, look at that! I had no idea we did that. That's actually
switching to a single-pane folder comparison. I'm not certain what the
desired behaviour here is, as I don't really understand what the
previous behaviour is good for, but I'm open to explanations.

Anyway, in the interests of not dumping tracebacks, I've pushed a
change to git that restores what I think our previous behaviour was.
Please let me know if it's not right.

cheers,
Kai
