[Unison-hackers] (resend) merge of single-file roots triggers assertion failure, tested versions 2.40.65 and 2.48.3

Hello Unison-Hackers,
I sent the following email to unison-users, but I don't think it got
through.
I'm trying to do something really simple with unison. I create two
empty files, synchronize them "unison foo bar" (so that an archive in
.unison is created for those roots), then make a change to one of them
and re-run unison with the same arguments. Instead of propagating the
change directly, I select 'merge'. At this point unison barfs
(uncaught assertion failure from path.ml). I am confused because I can
replicate the error even when using what seems to be a clean
configuration (e.g. new user account). I seem to remember that years
ago, I could use unison to accomplish simple operations like merging,
but even with version 2.40 I can replicate the bug. I tested on two
linux systems, running Arch (unison 2.48.3) and Debian (unison
2.40.65). This is a bug, is it not? Is there an easy fix?
Thank you,
Frederick

Subject: merge of single-file roots triggers assertion failure, tested versions 2.40.65 and 2.48.3
User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.21 (2010-09-15)
Hello Unison,
Merging changes to a single-file root doesn't appear to work.
I tested this on two systems, running unison versions 2.40.65 and 2.48.3.
In the older version, the last lines are:
[stasher] getRecentVersion of in /home/frederik/unison-test/foo
Uncaught exception File "/build/buildd-unison_2.40.65-2-i386-T0rnEi/unison-2.40.65/path.ml", line 202, characters 4-10: Assertion failed
In the newer version, they are:
[stasher] getRecentVersion of in /home/frederik/unison-test/foo
Uncaught exception File "/build/unison/src/unison-2.48.3/path.ml", line 210, characters 4-10: Assertion failed
Raised at file "/build/unison/src/unison-2.48.3/lwt/lwt.ml", line 126, characters 22-23
...
Is this a known bug?
I'm attaching a script to reproduce. Either run it in X, uncommenting
the xvkbd lines; or run it wherever and type SPACE-M-Y.
Thanks for your attention,
Frederick Eaton

Warning: No archive files were found for these roots, whose canonical names are:
/home/frederik/unison-test/foo
/home/frederik/unison-test/bar
This can happen either
because this is the first time you have synchronized these roots,
or because you have upgraded Unison to a new version with a different
archive format.
Update detection may take a while on this run if the replicas are
large.
Unison will assume that the 'last synchronized state' of both replicas
was completely empty. This means that any files that are different
will be reported as conflicts, and any files that exist only on one
replica will be judged as new and propagated to the other replica.
If the two replicas are identical, then no changes will be reported.
If you see this message repeatedly, it may be because one of your machines
is getting its address from DHCP, which is causing its host name to change
between synchronizations. See the documentation for the UNISONLOCALHOSTNAME
environment variable for advice on how to correct this.
