The problem seems to with the individual messages error/info. messages themselves. This test has the quality of a developer unit test and the messages could be improved for non-developer use. I ran the test on 4.11.8-rc1+ and 4.9.35-rc1 see the same failure. It would be difficult to bisect this since it spans multiple releases. I am hoping Andy can give us some insight.
