these are assumption bugs in our test scripts -- they will be fixed
in the next release, due out later today

this looks like a problem
re-check with the next release before spending time on it

test regressions are noted by the string "FAILURE" in the test logs
a regression does not cause non-0 exit status
this is so the build system { "nmake test"  "bin/package test" }
can differentiate test harness failures and regressions
