I just ran into this. It's not in a repo I can share however. But, why
did b2c8c0a make it into master with this known issue?

Because it was patched by another band-aid, and apparently it was not
enough?

Okay, I didn't see the band-aid, but I didn't look very hard.

You are the second person to report the same regression, so let's revert
the merge of the entire topic, ac9666f (Merge branch 'en/merge-recursive',
2011-04-28) from master for now.

I went to confirm the cause, did a merge with v1.7.4-rc0~102
(106e3afa6f) and did not see the "addinfo_cache failed" message. But
now here's the strange part, I then switched back to master
(11bc3e92bf), tried the merge again, and I'm still not seeing the
"addinfo_cache failed" message.

So now I'm trying to figure out what v1.7.4-rc0~102 altered about the
state of my repo that I'm no longer seeing the message.

Sorry, it's definitely that topic. I didn't realize you'd already
reverted it from master. The bug occurs between when the topic was
merged and when it was reverted.

Thanks,
