The test actually did fail on my machine.

Running tests with all possible permutations of prerequisites would be
nice, but sounds very expensive -- there must be billions of them!  But
there are only a few per test script, I imagine.  Collecting all found
prerequisites for each script and providing a way to force-disable them
individually could make testing them all feasible.  Nice idea!
