This is failing in a randomized test - it runs a number of times looking
for a "false".  If it does not find one in the run limit, it fails.

I will try to bump up the number of attempts a bit before the test
decides to give up (it does not fail for me on my local machine).

At this point, I'm inclined to try a few tweaks of the values and if the
numbers get too large (and the  tests slow down), then not put the tests
on the critical release path.

Ugg - still unstable.

It looks like these tests (were testMatch) were not part of the main test
suite, which is why they weren't a problem before. So I have removed them;
specifically, change the class name so Test* does not find them and added
some notes about them in comments.

(Claude particularly) Does that make sense?

To be honest, I just copied the tests over.  I am not certain what
they are testing or even if they make sense.  Random failure sounds
like a test case issue more than a code issue so I think your approach
is correct.  Please update the convert tests jira to add fixing these
tests.

Not sure they are fixable as such - I think they are some testing code supposed to be run to support development, and not part of a general build test suite. They seem to generate random cases and probe for conditions; I guess attempting to find corner cases but without guarantee there is a "right" answer.
