I'm getting very tired of this.  Last I knew those tests pass.  Do you
keep changing the tests or something?

There is no change in this entire series that seems needed.  Exception
possibly being the patch 1/7 -- given you put so much pressure on DM

Please drop all but patch 1/7 and see if your tests pass.
