Neither did building in a different directory -- whether a subdirectory of the source directory or outside it entirely, on my system it always fails the report-card tests with these same sorts of unexpectedly closed subprocess files.

Oh. I must have mis-read that part. My apologies.

The test log should be attached to this message; hopefully it does not

The build was performed on an obsolete platform – specifically, Mac OS

don’t know if anyone else will care that it failed.  I’d still like to
know why it is failing.
