Unfortunately I've lost the information which build was responsible
for this error (normally I keep it, but my script failed here because the
same config introduced two new regressions). CONFIG_BLOCK sounds plausible
here.

If necessary, I can repeat the last few hundred builds without this
patch to find out what it was.
