Recent "realpath" changes also went in:
b03c662399956609934ff063e9064e15dc7459ac xfstests: fix to build src/realpath and the correct the existence of target devices
d5ea873fcbf00b841f0511a26fb341364a5c6425 xfstests: resolve symlinked devices to real paths
so either of those could have broken and/or fixed it for you :)
