Note that the problem is mostly cosmetic. You get a non-zero return value,
but the actual operations works. The affected code is actually there for
"ptxdist menu". In that case, ptxdist remains running when a new
platformconfig is selected, so it must be configured again and this
triggers the bug. In this case, ptxdist exits and "ptxdist menu" must be
started again. Anyways, this should now be properly fixed with
a0f7c9471ddf6edf1ebfd48f1d5ff7bac40c4a63 ("ptxdist: fix nested ptxdist
sanity check") in master.

Regards,
Michael
