Backport #14461

Fixes #14342

Given that 6.3 will be released in a few weeks and solves so many other problems, I'd rather users just upgraded. WDYT? #14397

Hi @shilman, personally I've found another work around with a bit of trial and error on the globs that I was using.

I'd still be concerned about people trying to upgrade to 6.2 in the meantime, encountering this error and trying to debug it - especially as it happens only at runtime so CI checks would likely not block an automated dependency upgrade (though as this issue has been around for a couple of months perhaps no longer a concern).

It depends if you're already planning a 6.2.10 (in which case I think this should be included) - but, if not, perhaps check on #14342 to see if anyone is keen for a fix ASAP or can wait a few weeks.

closing this as 6.3 has been released
