Thanks for reporting that. It should be fixed by commit 
2019-08-16T23:25:02Z!eggert <at> cs.ucla.edu (attached) so I'm boldly closing the bug 
report.

On a related topic, perhaps tests shouldn't depend on time-of-day? That kind of 
phase-of-the-moon stuff can make maintenance difficult - though, as it happened, 
it wasn't a problem this time as I discovered and fixed the bug before reading 
your bug report.
