This is done in 4bdc03746915c36313b33b6998b855eef514cdd1 and
be505726b68d407a44fdcd9c7ac1ef722398532d.

The fix for bug#33794 can now be disabled by setting a variable
to t.  The variable's default value is nil, so the fix is in place
and so are all the problems that come with it.

Meanwhile, users of c-mode and c++-mode can:

   (setq c--disable-fix-of-bug-33794 t)

if they don't care about the fix for bug#33794, which only
affects users of c-toggle-auto-newline, off by default.

Thanks again,
João

    Fix electric-pair-tests by disabling bug#33794's fix with a variable

    The variable c--disable-fix-of-bug-33794, which should be removed in
    the short term in favor of a permanent solution, is introduced.

    It is bound to nil by default.  This means that breakage is still
    happening in actual c-mode and c++-mode usage, though the tests no
    longer show it.

    To get around this breakage, put

       (setq c--disable-fix-of-bug-33794 t)

    In your init file.  Evidently, you will lose the fix for bug#33794,
    but that only affects a small corner case of c-toggle-auto-newline,
    which is not turned on by default.
