Not sure if it's the interaction of the two topics or if only one of
them is to blame, but the result of the merge can dereference a NULL
pointer. Found using Clang's UBSan and t5310.
Here's a patch that avoids the issue, but I don't know if it's the
right thing to do -- should we rather treat a non-existing base as
"not from the same island" instead?
And it's certainly ugly -- that condition is complicated enough
already. Splitting it up in a nice way would probably help, but how?
