Thanks. As this is now a known bug in the test (and is already in 7.2
rather than a 7.3 regression in the pull request), I was not rushing
to fix that and rather continued to focus on my patchset.

Of course, I'm trying to keep tests passing, now that the majority of
high-frequency intermittent failures are fixed, so that people running
tests are not desensitized to failures.
