Hmm I had too many odd problems running qtests in parallel so I
switched to 'make check-qtest -j1' more than 1 year ago, which
is probably why I haven't noticed that issue.

Using another 'test_image' seems against code reuse principle,
but at this point in release, duplicating it is simpler. Someone
will clean that later =)

Is your QEMU built with --enable-sanitizers ?
