Hmph, surprisingly, 1/2 alone did not reproduce any breakage.
... goes and looks ...
Ah, that's false alarm.
As I use prove, "make test" treats known breakage as a non-event and
does not show, which made me lose a few minutes scratching my head
wondering what I did wrong. It would have been nicer if it were
easy to use 1/2 alone with the new test marked to expect success,
but with a patch split into two like this, it requires going in to
the test script and changing s/_failure/_success/, which is a bit
suboptimial.
Anyway, will queue this to 'pu' and hopefully we can merge it down
soonish.
Thanks.
