I took a look at this and it is always repeatable, but will be very difficult to determine the ultimate root cause. In dealing with this I would suggest the following parable. A man walks into the doctor's office and says, "Doc, it hurts when I stick a knife in my side". The doctor responds, "So stop doing that". I don't have time or interest to wade for hours through this issue. For starters, the %!test mechanism is convoluted and uses eval to bring temporary functions into existence.

So, if I understand correctly your parable, I'm not supposed to write this sort of test... How am I supposed to know that? What is wrong with my test?

Anyway, thanks for the workaround.
