From Debian bug report:

Hi again,

Btw, the object causing the trouble is .... wait for it ... C/2014 OE4!
(see orbit_Eccentricity=0.999993 in ssystem.ini). Actually, it
seems that the eccentricity is smaller [1], but the case remains.

There are other objects with high e's which may cause trouble as well
(look for "Eccentricity=0.9999" in ssystem.ini). And there are objects
with e's close to 1 from above (search for "Eccentricity=1.0000")
which *could* be problematic.
