  OK, I can verify that the abort happens and that it's fixed by the
patch I wrote.  For future reference for myself or anyone else: to
reproduce the bug you have to set APT_CONFIG to point at the apt.conf in
this test case and edit apt.conf to include an absolute path to the
desired include file (or add a literal include).  This is a deficiency
in aptitude-run-state-bundle, but also in apt (there doesn't seem to be
a combination of path overrides that will cause it to read a different
apt.conf, so a-c-s-b can't cause the configuration file in the bundle to
be read).

  I haven't figured out why apt is behaving this way yet and I haven't
verified for myself that it is preserved across updates, but I can
confirm that sections are coming up empty.  "apt-cache show gsfonts-other"
prints:

Package: gsfonts-other
Section:
Installed-Size: 1728
 (...)
