Meh. I agree that new leakproof functions should be carefully reviewed,
but I have precisely zero faith that this regression test will contribute
to that. It hasn't even got a comment saying why changes here should
receive any scrutiny; moreover, it's not in a file where changes would be
likely to excite suspicion. (Probably it should be in opr_sanity, if
we're going to have such a thing at all.)
