kept builds not being kept

[Chris Withers]

Hi All,

I have a matrix build where some of the child builds are marked as "keep
forever" (the ones that end up being deployed to production).

That job also only keeps 50 builds, because even the non-artifact parts
of the results (code coverage report, test report, etc) take up a lot of
space.

I noticed that some of the builds that had been "kept forever" had been
deleted.

Has anyone else experienced this? I'm using Jenkins 1.480.2.

cheers,

Chris

Easy to reproduce, so bug reported:
