Im not sure if you realise, but the stable branch is on its last legs.

The unstable branch has been in development for over a year now, Erik has
said he intends make a stable release from the unstable code and remove
the current fork soonish.

As such, its hard to be motivated to fix bug in stable, i think ts better
to fix bugs in unstable so we can have a release from that branch sooner.

If you try the mkdir in unstable im confident it will work.

Unstable can be buggy at times, but perhaps you would be better off using
a snapshot from unstable.

If you find bugs in unstable people will be interested in fixing them,
porting from unstable back to stable is more than just copying the
individual files.
