#35070: Redirection loop for similar slugs with dashes

 For instance, if you have the following posts:

 http://www.example.com/lore/collections/kaidan-lore
 http://www.example.com/lore/zone/kaidan

 Trying to access either will result in an endless redirection loop. The
 problem is the dash between '''kaidan''' and '''lore''', it seems that
 WordPress no longer recognises the rest of the slug after the dash, and
 thus confuses them.

 When I changed it to '''kaidancollection''' instead of '''kaidan-lore''',
 the redirection loop went away.

 This is a new issue in WordPress 4.4.
