I'm not 100% convinced exactly which patches in the test build called
which failures.

I'd keep meaning to ask someone about this, I'm not 100% sure its the
right thing to do or if there is another underlying issue which should
be fixed instead.

Did this trigger some of those failures?

This is horrid, we need to fix the root problems, not hack around it.

split mounts. Or we need two functions, one which is mount safe and one
which is not.

See Martin's comment, we need to fix this one in a better way.
