i don't think it's an issue per se, it's an interesting idea to share
the gotd session across a suite of tests.  It just means that I need
to pay a bit of attention and don't try tricks to get tests run faster :)

(often when working on regress/cmdline/* i add `test_foo ; exit $?'
right after test_parseargs to save some time while iterating.)
