Interesting. There wasn't that much in v11. It's not the general rework,
but just the allocation of the descriptor together slot when the
descriptor is known at creation time - or a conflict with concurrent
partitioning work. It's plausible that enough changed in master for
that to not be a problem anymore.

Looking.
