Folks,

Our test coverage needs all the help it can get.

This patch, extracted from another by Fabian Coelho, helps move things
in that direction.

I'd like to argue that it's not a new feature, and that it should be
back-patched as far as possible.

Best,
David.

This will help increase test coverage for anything that might need it,
and a lot of things currently need it.
