Bug Description

The test suite is supposed to delete working directories as each test succeeds, but it apparently does not - if you run bzr selftest on a 3GB ramdisk, it will run out of space.

I think this was reported previously by someone trying to test on openbsd - maybe in bug 314247.

I don't see how this can happen -
TestCaseInTempDir has self.deleteTestDir set as a cleanup by the same code that makes a per-test test dir.

The only way I could see this happening is a system leak in test cleanups - a bug in runCleanups and/or some outcome not triggering cleanups. I suspect that this may be the case, but fixed by my branch I just put up for review to overhaul outcomes.

Unless you can provide more evidence, I'm marking this bug as invalid.
For other reasons I'm been watching /tmp content while selftest is running and obviously we clean it up as we go.

I have occurrences where /tmp is filling up GBs for *one* test, but it's related to thread and socket leaks (tracked elsewhere).
