Thanks for double checking.  If it is a configuration that is an
error, then we would want to notice it eventually (probably outside
the scope of this series), and before that happens, I agree that
modifying the test to avoid such an errnoneous scenario would be a
very good idea---otherwise we'd be pretending that such a scenario
is a supported configuration somehow and misleading developers and
users.

Thanks.
