Post the output with --dump-pages.

The output was too big (over the 65,536 character limits), here it is with the mish mosh of random characters omitted

Hey why was this closed?

Hrxn · 2018-07-15T19:37:07Z

Because it was fixed with commit 79367a9?
(I assume, have not tested for myself)

No new release though, so either wait or run git master.

12345yay12345 · 2018-07-15T20:31:31Z

Ah, sorry, didn't see that, thanks all!
