Due to preparations for SeaGL and other matters, I'm afraid I won't have
much extra time until the end of this month.  However, I've peeked at
the derivers, and I may have a hint for now.

The derivers' builders differ as follows:

Notably, they DO both seem to use the same store path for hello.  The
only differing paths look like they were produced by profile hooks.
Perhaps this issue has something to do with profile hooks?
