It's true that the first message of bug 22558 mentioned two different
failure modes of gnupg-2.1.11's test suite.  However, the subsequent
discussion focused on just one of those failure modes: the one that led
to 14 test failures.  I closed the bug when that failure mode was
addressed.

In retrospect, since these two failure modes have different causes and
different fixes, perhaps I should have filed two separate bug reports
from the beginning.  If we can agree on this, then perhaps we can
consider 22558 to address only the 14-test failure mode, and this bug
(22826) can address the gpgtar.test failure mode.

What do you think?
