For some strange reason, git bisect pointed to that unrelated commit
which must have exposed a problem with a previous commit.
For JomF, reverting a different unrelated commit makes the bug go away.
When I just revert 4c541b32c3a02a1fc4981879359307d273c9b9ca, I still
have all jtrts tests fail (with non-OMP).
After reverting 4c541b32c3a02a1fc4981879359307d273c9b9ca and
4e39b7e608e5bb09624c0b455561c73700e6f24f, the problem goes away.
If instead ov reverting both of these commits, I just revert
4e39b7e608e5bb09624c0b455561c73700e6f24f, the bug is still there.
