Ok, I think you're on to something there!  In the log file for both the
cut and the non-cut versions is:

Video length is 21 seconds. Each chapter will be 2 seconds
Extracting thumbnail images from:
/var/lib/mytharchive/temp/work/1/stream.m2v - at 0,2,4,6,8,10,12,14

But in the version that has cuts, the video is only 10 seconds long.
And if I look in the work/1 directory, there are only 5 thumbnails
(0,2,4,6,8) present.

getLengthOfVideo() is parsing streaminfo.xml to determine the video
length, and streaminfo.xml does not reflect the post-cut size:
<file duration="21" cutduration="21" type="mpeg"
filename="/var/lib/mytharchive/temp/work/1/newfile2.mpg">


I may track down why this is the case, but I'm guessing that you're much
more familiar with the code and may beat me to it.  :)
