[tex-live] mktexlsr.pl bug (minor, but...)

Dear all:
I've found a (minor) bug in mktexlsr.pl (or somewhere) that occurs when
using fmtutil-sys.
The bug is that, when I combine my texmf-var and texmf-dist trees, then
fmtutil-sys terminates after generating the first format, with the message
/usr/local/texmf/bin/kpsetool is encountered a second time at /usr/share/perl/5.18/File/Find.pm line 422.
It doesn't generate any additional formats.
To reproduce the problem (without combining any texmf trees), run the
commands:
cd /usr/local/texlive/2015/texmf-var/xdvi
ln -s ../ls-R kpsetool
ln -s kpsetool kpsexpand
ln -s kpsetool kpsepath
cd
fmtutil-sys --byengine luatex
The problem seems to be when fmtutil.pl calls mktexlsr.pl. However,
the shell command "mktexlsr /usr/local/texlive/2015/texmf-var" runs fine.
