Thank you for letting me know about this issue. I was a bit concerned about
causing stack traces.
I do not want to lose your testing!
I'll submit a patch to disable any test that causes a backtrace, then add a
boot command line option to enable those tests. That was most people will
not see the backtrace, the test will be reported as skipped, and people
like me can go to the extra effort to enable the tests.
Hopefully the patch get a good reception.
