Ah, fair point.

Adar actually helped get to the bottom of the underlying reason we were seeing 
these failures, which is that the KuduMiniCluster isn't honoring the 
TEST_TMPDIR environment variable, as we do in kudu_tools_test.cc. As such, the 
KMCs were being directed to some /tmp directory instead of the expected drive, 
which should have been one that supports hole punching. I pointed Grant at the 
issue, since he's familiar with the KMCs and the general area.
