Thanks for narrowing this down!  Is it possible this is actually a
cherry-pick problem since --preserve-merges forces rebase to use
cherry-pick?

Ah, good!  I had seen this behavior as well but couldn't remember what I
did to trigger it.

I don't think I have the expertise to fix rebase and/or cherry-pick.
What's the process for adding these tests to the testbase and marking
them so the appropriate person can fix them?  I see a lot of TODO tests.
Should I mark these similarly and propose a patch to the testbase?
