Description Gordon P. Hemsley 2013-05-26 20:41:35 UTC 
Step 9(otherwise)(17) states:

<<<
If "candidate" is null, jump back to the "search loop" step. Otherwise, jump back to the "process candidate" step.
>>>

However, the "process candidate" step is part of step 9(if "mode" is "attribute")(1), which is not in the execution chain of step 9(otherwise)(17). Thus, one cannot "jump back" to it.

Yeah, that was a bug introduced by r7843, fixed in r7902.
