These seem to be intermittent -- a rerun was fine. (I have a theory
that the test framework handles "QEMU process died due to the VM
running out of memory" and similar kinds of error very badly:
I semi-regularly find that when the OpenBSD, FreeBSD and NetBSD
VM jobs are running in parallel on the same machine that one
might fail but succeed on a rerun.)

Applied, thanks.
