This is most unfortunate, it will make bisection across that point
slower for all future generations, forever. What is the root cause,
reusing a file name which was previously generated, removed and then
at some point became non-generated? How can we avoid this in the
future, would it help for example to ban such behavior, requiring that
when removing or renaming files, the obsolete names must be added to
.gitignore or checkpatch.pl?
