Which means that it was introduced by one of the earlier commits (probably
mine).  Thank you for this investigative work!
Although, to be frank and honest, I still don't see how the problem could be
a non-issue before.

P.S.
I also have a big suspicion that we have more problems that can be triggered by
WITNESS && !WITNESS_SKIPSPIN, but which are harmless in practice.
