Why?
I can certainly see an argument for running some buildfarm animals
with fsync on (for all tests). I don't see a reason for forcing
them all to run some tests that way; and if I were going to do that,
I doubt that 008_fsm_truncation.pl would be the one I would pick.
I think it's nothing but sloppiness that that one is out of step with
all the rest.
IMO, if a buildfarm owner sets fsync = off, they mean off.
They don't mean "maybe".
