OK. I will submit an RFR soon to guard the specific case that we've observed consistently failing (after
ensuring that there aren't other failures that start occurring after that change). Part of me worries that
this approach won't prevent future failures in case one of the GCs changes its behavior such that the
collections affect other unguarded objects in these tests.
