Excellent! I was on TWRP 2.2.2.1 for a while, tried to go back to TWRP 2.6.3.0 (SilverL's). Fastboot flashed it fine, but I got errors in the symlinking process with any ROM (two) I threw at it.

I suppose my local file got corrupted (as I had a disk problem some months back), but this version saved the day. Thank you!

Have you tried to build twrp 2.8.x? And whether it is possible for doubleshot ?
