Could be. I haven't looked that hard. It certainly wasn't deterministic.
I saw failures in completely different tests in two separate runs. Once
I turned this option off, it ran without issue. On Windows it was fine
with the option enabled.

I was thinking of re-factoring exactly along these lines. I'll have some
time later today so I'll give that a try before tagging 7.0.23.

True. Lets see where the refactoring gets us. If that works, it will
address the testing issue as well as providing an improvement for
standard usages.
