Oh, you're running meson test directly.

The behaviour I describe is wrt the official way of running tests via
'make check' or 'make check-functional'.

When you use 'make', we set 'QEMU_TEST_NO_DOWNLOAD=1' when the tests
themselves are run, so only the 'make precache-functional' will be
permitted to try downloading.

With regards,
Daniel
