I assume you're looking for something more than the sanitizer test that is implemented here? I will admit I'm not super familiar with this area of the code so have been leaning on the sanitizer failing/passing to tell me if things are ok (+ passing tests for behavior) but we might be missing coverage. I'm happy to try other changes if you have any that I should. Or maybe we make a follow on to investigate why this fix is needed? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
