We need an accurate count of the number of bits set in a bitmap
after a merge. In particular, since the merge operation short-circuits
a merge from an empty source, if you have bitmaps A, B, and C where
B started empty, then merge C into B, and B into A, an inaccurate
count meant that A did not get the contents of C.
In the worst case, we may falsely regard the bitmap as empty when
it has had new writes merged into it.
