After playing with this a bit, I think your patch is correct. The code
has drifted a bit in the meantime, so attached is an updated patch.
Your patch added variable initializations for divergerec and
lastcommontli. Was that to avoid compiler warnings about uninitialized
variables? I didn't get these here. If that's the issue, maybe these
initializations should be moved to the if (same timeline) branch, to get
it a bit closer to the action.
I also added a test for this case. (It would currently fail.)
