too many new addresses created receiving split transaction #302

I just made a new wallet and deliberately set the keypool to be small, since I'll only be using it for staking. I put this in clam.conf:

keypool=10

Then I sent some coins to the wallet. I split the coins into 99 separate outputs, all going to the same address. When the transaction was received I saw this in the wallet's debug.log:

2017-01-18 06:55:49 AddToWallet 062cca235a943d88d4e4a49b4007f50195071e012242f5d3a01813376961a201  new

2017-01-18 06:56:18 keypool keep 98
2017-01-18 06:56:19 keypool added key 109, size=11
2017-01-18 06:56:19 keypool reserve 99
2017-01-18 06:56:19 keypool keep 99
2017-01-18 06:56:19 keypool added key 110, size=11
2017-01-18 06:56:19 keypool reserve 100
2017-01-18 06:56:19 keypool keep 100

ie. it looks like it created 99 new addresses in the wallet. I understand that the wallet wants to create a new receiving address when the previous one was used, but it shouldn't be creating more than one of them since only one address was used.

Edit: I should mention that this was using the unreleased code on the master branch, with the 'reindex' fixes, etc.
