Hey Isabelle devs.

I've just spent a few minutes helping a teammate who was getting "Duplicate session" errors out of isabelle build/jedit.

To reproduce this error, take a version of isabelle at, say, ~tsewell/work/isabelle, and attempt "isabelle jedit -d . -d ~tsewell/work/isabelle".

(Needless to say, the additional -d parameter was passed implicitly in my colleague's setup, or else we would have figured this out much faster.)

Anyway, this would all be a lot easier to understand if isabelle/src/Pure/Tools/build.scala reported both the duplicate specification addresses.

At enormous risk of offending the wizards of the realm by appallingly wasting their time, this is a patch that solves the issue:

Cheers,
