Thanks, it will be nice to have that test run a bit faster in wallclock
terms.

No, it's 100% ours. We just put (somewhat inconsistently in some cases)
our own code that is only needed for "compat" with some "platforms" into
compat/*.

Well, somewhat/mostly, then "contrib/" is supposed to be third-party
imports, but some code in both is 100% ours, some is out-of-tree, some
is effectively perma-forked and has no "upstream" anymore etc.
