Posting on bug-... assumes it is in fact a bug, otherwise just more
line noise.

I posted here hoping to hear from someone who might know... what the
output means.

So asking the question again:

Do you actually know answers to my question... that is, do you know
what the output means?

I'm not sure where to get the 'release' version...
