So I'm getting ready to push some of the bug fixes we made in RHEL after the nss-3.101 rebase and I've found that we have test failures. After debugging I found that we have issues with the tools test. One of the fixed https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nss/rev/26d04d787d02e68c7f0752c16a113b7157ac9e3e, (which fixed a real bug) caused our tests for fail. These were tests expecting to fail, but the change changed the failure code.

So 1) we shouldn't be checking things into tree when the tests are failing so badly, and 2) we should make sure the tests we check in don't introduce new failures. We have some tests on some platforms that are continually failing, we should figure those out, but you really should run all.sh on your machine just to make sure something hasn't been trashed.

There are two fixes for the current failure. The immediate fix is to change the expected error code. This will make the tests pass, but then the tests will stop actually testing the thing they are testing for. The second is to add an option to ignore password integrity checks, and use it on those tests.

I'll see how hard the latter is, but maybe for now we can change the expected error code and get tools green again?
