Well unfortunately, I can't diagnose it using the information I have
because when a "run" test fails, the regression log processing does
not capture the whole error message, which includes the commands used
to invoke the test.

I was sure I'd reported this problem in the past but now I can't find
the message.

OK.  I guess it would help if you could upload your regression log in
addition to the processed XML.

For the same toolset, the iterator test seems to exhibit the same
symptom.

They look the same to me, so, yes.
