Previously, --abort would end by git resetting to ORIG_HEAD, but some commands, such as git reset --hard (which happened in git rebase --skip, but could just as well be typed by the user), modify ORIG_HEAD.

Just use the orig-head we store in $dotest instead. ---

 I'm relieved, I'm not exactly to blame ;) I just exposed the bug that was
 actually already here.
