Aha!  Okay that explains it.

Yeah, as a general rule we recommend people upgrade either from LTS to
LTS, or from release N to release N+1, as these are the scenarios we
focus on testing during development.  Upgrades that skip releases are
not tested so well (it becomes a combinatorial explosion of options)
and I can imagine that an issue like this would arise.  I would be
surprised if this is the only issue found.

Still, let's keep the bug open.  This issue definitely needs solved for
Lucid.
