Well, the "tests" here aren't actually tests—they're whether the package compiles or not. If the compiler is being inconsistent, that's a pretty big bug ;)

Ah, I thought it was doing "cargo test" to see if the compiled code had a functional regression. But that would be challenging to investigate regressions (especially in the face of unstable tests).
