Thanks for digging, Mike.

These tests aren’t failing on 6.x (including the backport to branch_6_0: 0/100 
TestBoolean2 beasting failures just nnw) - in your digging did you come across 
anything that would explain that?

I’d rather not revert this bugfix backport just because it exposed other, 
possibly test-only?, bugs, but I understand that spending a bunch of time on an 
old patch release is non-optimal :).
