Research direction

Reproduce the actual database change that fails before copying records, then inspect /usr/bin/pt-online-schema-change around line 3520 and the handling of the save-state option. Compare the failing invocation with the preceding check that passed; done means the redundant printf argument is resolved and the schema change completes without the reported error.
