    This test was written BEFORE the actual fix and it did fail up untill the 
fix was in place. I do agree it's a bit clumsy and potential future changes may 
break the original intention of the test. I've referred a potential testing 
approach (currently limited to scala's source code) which couldn't be (easily) 
applied to this code base so I made a best effort to test this.
    I agree this needs better documentation, I'll start be referring the issue 
in the test's name and will also add comments to the code.
