 [Just for people reading this:
  alternatively you could've asked here (or in private) to get a
  bugzilla account.]

Exactly. Your diagnosis is correct, and it definitely is a
buglet in package 'nlme' (maintained by R Core, currently).

I've committed a bug fix (and related "cleanup cosmetics") to
the nlme package sources which  are maintained in subversion / svn at
  https://svn.r-project.org/R-packages/trunk/nlme/

Thank you for your precise and reproducible bug report!
