I sent an email about this to the upstream mailing list:

https://systeme.lip6.fr/pipermail/cocci/2016-January/002742.html

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-01-14 10:31:31 UTC
Upstream supplied a patch which either fixes or works around
the problem.  I have applied it to coccinelle-1.0.4-3.fc24 so
please try that version.
