I also don't see a test for this error condition. However, it is not
clear to me how important is it to cover this error code path. This
code has existed for a long time and I didn't notice any bugs related
to this. There is a possibility that in the future we might break
something because of a lack of this test but not sure if we want to
cover every code path via tests as each additional test also has some
cost. OTOH, If others think it is important or a good idea to have
this test then I don't have any objection to the same.
