This is the only one to which my previous discussions apply.

I've since reproducesd this several times, never intentionally but it
always happens immediately after recompiling the binaries.

Again this could be in any test, if possible retry with ZTST_verbose=1

Once more, anywhere.  X02 manipulates zpty terminals to emulate an
interactive session, so is a likely place for race conditions.
