I'm not claiming it's not, but what exactly points to that? Does the
problem go away if you move to a version before that?

Because I'm 99% sure I saw it well before that commit, and we've had
reports on it from 8.4 as well, I'm not so sure... But it may be that
that commit made something more likely to happen...
