Maybe the backport is flawed some way. Or did Keith try git master?
I'm a bit curious to know what fails.

Also, after this patch I noticed that there are now two mechanisms for
skipping partial CUs -- one for psymtabs and one more generic one that
was added by the patch. I have a patch to remove the psymtab one which
I can submit soon. (The current setup doesn't hurt anything, it's just
a little redundant.)
