Right, I see what you mean now.  In the following message there's an
additional commit that adds what I think is reasonable documentation of
this; comments welcome.  This is intended to be applied on top of my
previous patch in
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2018-04/msg00029.html,
which is unchanged.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to this!
