Just to follow up on this, it seems that the regression comes from the
fix Carl introduced in 2a1a4f0551 to make his simplification of my patch
(simplification = 36e4459a3 , my patch = 4971b85641) pass tests. The
question is whether my original, more complicated version would have
passed the tests without the regressing fix. I do know that it showed
the search order as expected.

Unfortunately, I'm not quite skilled enough at git to turn back some
files to a certain state, tests to another state, and so on.

Best,
Jesse
