A bit early perhaps, but with current stable I get:

Oops, where are my manners, removing arches.

[Comment 2 Michael Weber (RETIRED) 2017-03-19 11:34:04 UTC]

I can confirm the problem with current stable and the solution by upgrading to 2017.03.10.

Either stabilize 2017.03.10 early or drop stable keywords because 2016.12.22 has a major deficiency.

Thanks.
