No se puede implementar en Rinkeby a través de truffle; no se puede leer la propiedad 'bind'

Estoy usando trufa: "^4.1.14" y versión ganache-cli "^6.1.8". Cuando trato de migrar a la red ganache cli, funciona sin problemas. Pero cuando intento migrar a Rinkeby, siempre falla. El mensaje de error dice TypeError: Cannot read property 'bind' of undefined. La línea problemática está enterrada en algún lugar profundo del paquete web, y no puedo acceder a ese script para inspeccionarlo o consolarlo.

La parte relevante de truffle.js se ve así

rinkeby_infura: {
      provider: function() {        
        // using process.env.MNENOMIC would be safer, but this is test project
        const mnemonic = require('./.mnemonic');
        const apiKey = require('./.infura_api_key');
        return new HdWalletProvider(mnemonic, 'https://rinkeby.infura.io/' + apiKey);
      },
      network_id: 4,      
      gas: 4612388 // Gas limit used for deploys
    },

El seguimiento completo de la pila de la excepción se encuentra a continuación. Probablemente tenga algo que ver con la conexión a Rinkeby a través del proveedor, al menos por lo que he buscado en Google hasta ahora. Pero soy incapaz de hacer que funcione.

$ ./node_modules/.bin/truffle migrate --network rinkeby_infura
