tag REL8_2_6 not present in file xyz

Hi,

I'm generating a diff between 8.2.5 and 8.2.6 and I get this:

Which is quite strange, because the files are quite clearly present in
the 8.2.6 repository. I have a hunch that it is the set of files that
were removed in HEAD, but why should that affect whether the files get
tagged?

The same thing happens if I try diffing 8.1.10 to 8.1.11.

Hmm, if I try it on non-anonymous checkouts, the messages are not
shown. Perhaps it is a problem with the mirroring script?
