That is:

	test_must_fail git send-email --dump-aliases --to=janice@example.com -1 refs/heads/accounting

Which matches the case described elsewhere in this thread.  It's
git-send-email.perl.  test_must_fail is doing its job correctly by
diagnosing a real bug in git-send-email.perl, which we're grateful for
you having discovered. :)

Thanks,
Jonathan
