I don't think there's a one-size-fits-all policy for them. Since
we don't intend these modules to be installed, they don't really
need to work in any cases beyond the ones exercised in the tests.
Still, if it's easy to stop a misbehavior then we probably should.
The test_predtest problem was just a missing check-for-null so
I definitely regard that as worth fixing. These other ones would
have to be investigated enough to figure out the size of the fix
before I'd venture an opinion.
