Check the Travis build logs. The failure started with 7f8006f. The commit
message explains what is happening - a fix previously introduced was found
to cause some serious issues so was reverted. As a consequence the original
bug the test was designed to detect has stated failing again. It's a
correct failure, and is now waiting on me finding a better fix than the one
that was reverted...
