Hi Robbie

QPID-6613 has been making some changes to test logging.  One area of change
is the generation of per-test log files which is now handled by Logback's
SiftingAppender.

I made a commit (r1690741) on Monday (13th) (to help investigate a
seemingly new sporadical issue where the Java Broker was failing to close
down completely because the Selector-Port thread remains running).  This
commit would mean the JVM running the tests would hold on to more file
handles for longer.  I have reverted this change as I expect that it is
contributing to the issue you are seeing.  I have just reverted this change.

I wonder if the issue you were observing from around 2nd/3rd July is the
same as my Selector-Port thread issue.  If you see a recurrence, can you
post some details?  I am having problems reproducing on the kit I have
available to me.

cheers, Keith.
