Maybe?  I'm trying to figure out why it's having issues.. I've not been
able to reproduce it with just my maple tree branch.  Steven Rostedt
found a bad commit that has been fixed in either 20220224, I believe
[1].  It might be best to try next-20220225 and see if you have better
luck if that's an option.
