I think I got that figured out now.  parallel-tests8 and suffix13 belong
fixed in maint, the rest come from tests-suffix-extend.  The key is
using 'git log --ancestry-path $commit..master', where $commit1 is the
one that introduced the bug for a particular file.  The merge commits in
the output provide the key.

I've pushed this as two commits, to maint, to a private
tests-suffix-extend resurrection, and from there to master.

I also merged maint to branch-1.11 and master to clear any conflicts
resulting from this.

Cheers,
Ralf
