+ # Changed but not updated:
+ # (use "git add <file>..." to update what will be committed)
+ #
+ # modified: iconvdata/ibm1122.c

+ #
+ no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")

+
+So these files are indeed of zero-length in the checked-out tree. Is this
+git's fault or something else's?
+
+Fixing this situation is easy enough:
+
+ $ git checkout -- iconvdata/ibm1122.c localedata/charmaps/IBM862
+ $ git status
+ # On branch master
+ nothing to commit (working directory clean)

+The `runit` package doesn't work, even its test suite doesn't finish.
+
+[[Thomas_Schwinge|tschwinge]] once was having a look at that, but this very
+report is just from his memory, and his memory is dim... The problem *might*
+either be a time stamping issue (which might be fixed by now) or it *might* be
+the `select` call failing issue we're seeing from time to time. Or something
+else.
