It should be fixed in r51914 (see the commit message for more details).

Joerg, please let me know if it now works for you (or if you are in fact

seeing a different bug).

Fixed.

Thanks!

Now that it is working, the only question left is: What's the use case for
this progress bar?

Not sure, Gerald probably knows the answer. I think probably just to provide an indication that it's not stuck on much slower machines where startup (especially with a cold cache) can take a nontrivial amount of time.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
