I did, back on Nov 30.  I compared the full contents of a working
initrd.img, created with mkinitrd-5.1.10, with those of one created
with mkinitrd-5.1.12.  The scripts were identical, the device nodes
were identical, everything was the same, except for the nash binary.
And, as the comment says, that's as far as I got then.
