Interesting. I've seen t1304 break from time to time.

I set the DEFAULT_TEST_TARGET to "prove", and when the test suite
finishes with this failure, I noticed t3600-rm and some other test I
do not recall also failed, with two extra files (actual and expect)
at the root of the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY (set to /dev/shm/testpen
via "--root=/dev/shm/testpen" option).

I the breakage does not happen reproducibly with any pattern other
than the above (I do not know if it never happens when test target
is set to "test", for example), so haven't looked (and will not
look) into it myself further than that.
