The last buch of fixes seems to have fixed this. The tests passed on a
Jenkins that had failing tests earlier.
Thanks Steve Rowe for lending the super-powerful machine that runs the
entire suite in 8 min!

I've seen about 20 runs on that box and also runs on Policeman Jenkins with
no issues related to this test since the last commit so I've also
back-ported this to 5x as well.
