I've seen that since at least February on my PowerBook, but haven't made the time to track it down (11-CURRENT from mid-October 2015 worked fine). On the bright side, though, 12-CURRENT as of October 31 works fine on my PowerBook. I still don't have the time to bisect and track down the cause of the problem or the fix, but if you feel like bisecting and trying to find the snapshot that fixes the problem, that could help narrow down where it got fixed, and a fix could be backported to 11-STABLE. - Justin
