I'm running into a strange new problem with masks in the new version 0e94264 of ansel I just compiled. When applying some operation, eg., change of exposure by one stop, to the whole image, the change usually is easily visible. In the new version, when I then select, say, a drawn mask, e.g., an ellipse, and then click on the image, the exposure reverts to the initial value, the green outline appears, and within the green outline the effect is miniscule compared to before, if present at all. Moreover when I click on the mask refinement symbol (white square with a dark circle inside), the whole picture turns black and white, with the masked region marked very faintly in yellow. This used to be very clear and bright yellow before. The terminal from which I started ansel repeatedly shows the message "[_dev_add_history_item_ext] invalidating history", apparently for any action I take in ansel. I first noticed this problem with the Contrast equalizer module, but the same problems occurs with the exposure module and also with different pictures.

Ansel is self-compiled under Gentoo Linux 6.6.52.
