As I said, I hit the bug in 4.4.2.  The code that the patch addresses works
in 4.5.9 without the patch, but not in 4.4.2.  The failing test-case was 
execdir-multiple.exp.  It simply broke the traversal as soon as the first 
execdir had been executed.  FWIW the full backport for upstream bugs #19593 
and #27563 is attached to the corresponding Fedora bug:
