[EP-tech] BUG? First creators disrespected until another run of import --update

Hi,
We're experiencing a weird phenomenon in E-Prints version 3.3.10: The first creators are not imported on the first run of 

# The record isn't existing yet
$ ~/bin/import $repo --user $userid --enable-import-fields --enable-file-imports --update eprint XML /tmp/savifa1867.xml 

# Now, record is there but without creator
$ ~/bin/import $repo --user $userid --enable-import-fields --enable-file-imports --update eprint XML /tmp/savifa1867.xml 
# Now, everything is fine

Between the two runs no changes to /tmp/savifa1867.xml have been made.
Now, please look at the relevant data of another record with multiple creators ... 

After 1st run of bin/import command:
mysql> select oa.source_opus, oa.reihenfolge rfo, e.pos rf, oa.creator_name, e.creators_name_family from savifadok.opus_autor oa left outer join eprint_creators_name e on oa.source_opus=e.eprintid AND oa.reihenfolge=e.pos+1; 
+-------------+------+------+-------------------------------------+
| source_opus | rfo | rf | creator_name | creators_name_family +-------------+------+------+--------------------+----------------+

After the 2nd:

My creators definition in cfg.d/eprint_fields.pl:

          {
            'name' => 'creators',
            'type' => 'compound',
            'multiple' => 1,
            'fields' => [
                          {
                            'sub_name' => 'name',
                            'type' => 'name',
                            'hide_honourific' => 1,
                            'hide_lineage' => 1,
                            'family_first' => 0,
                          },
                          #{
                          #  'sub_name' => 'id',
                          #  'type' => 'text',
                          #  'input_cols' => 20,
                          #  'allow_null' => 1,
                          #}
                        ],
            'input_boxes' => 1,
          },

Dear Developers, I'd love to provide more information if needed. :-)
This issue is of no gravity for us as multiple migration runs have been done on a regular basis for each of our four instances (thanks to having done the metadata preparation in the legacy repository).
Nevertheless I like to hear if you can reproduce the problem in the first place. 


Kind regards,
Florian
