Good point.  Ideally the tests would come first if the fixes are
contraversial, or be squashed with the fixes if neither is
contraversial, or after if the tests are contraversial but the fixes
are not.

For bisectability and clarity, the tests should use test_expect_failure
when they fail (like this patch series does) and change that to
test_expect_success in the patch that fixes them.
