SuperCache: Mobile pages cached but never served

WordPress Mobile Pack helps SuperCache write separate (“legacy”, non-“Super”) cache files for mobile visits, but these are never actually served to mobile users. (Non-mobile works fine.)

Looking at the SuperCache debug logs below: A site visitor is flagged as using a mobile browser, SuperCache looks but does not find the mobile cache file, so it generates new cache file. The next visit to the same page, for some reason it does not find the just-saved cache file, so it generates a new one with the exact same filename as last time…

Below are debug logs of 2 consecutive visits to the same page, which yield exactly the same result:

(Changing WPSC to “legacy” or “PHP” mode yields the same results… But seems like WPSC is looking in supercache directory for non-super (legacy) cache files?)
