Just to make sure we do not miscommunicate, I do not think we want
to trigger the paranoia mode only in our tests.  We want to be
paranoid to help real users who used "--missing" for their real use,
so enabling PARANOIA in the test script is a wrong approach.  We
should enable it inside "rev-list --missing" codepath.
