Wow!
Our whole selftest system is so complex and jury-rigged that I really
never expected we could pick out one part of it like this and have it
still run at all.
It will be a pain to maintain that file over time, but still, wow!
This nicely covers the 'links but fails to run' case really well, and I
hope we can just hand-wave-assert that the finer protocol points don't
change when --disable-python is used.
Well done!
