--- Comment #3 from Chris McMahon <[email protected]> ---

Because both the underlying page and the Welcome to... overlay appear and
disappear and reappear and then finally disappear for good, there is a chance
that the correct elements will be in place at the times that the test looks for
them.  On rare occasions the  build will hit everything with perfect timing. 

The other interesting artifact of this issue is that the tests in each build
fail for different reasons, because the page and the overlay are appearing and
disappearing and reappearing.

Watching the behavior in crossbrowsertesting as noted above is instructive. 
The appear/disappear/reappear/disappear-again behavior is easily seen, I just
checked it again.

And while the appearance of the 'You are not logged in' notice despite being
logged in is more difficult to reproduce, it seems to be a symptom of the same
issue.
