I could reproduce the problem.

Finally, it is an error in `process-file', which wasn't detected until
now. Thanks to triggering this!

I've fixed it already in Emacs' trunk. For org-mode, I have used the
following workaround:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
~/src/org-mode> git diff
diff --git a/lisp/ob-eval.el b/lisp/ob-eval.el
index 23e7143..df95d0a 100644

+      (delete-file error-file))
     (if (or replace
            (and output-buffer
                 (not (or (bufferp output-buffer) (stringp output-buffer)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

With that workaround, "make test" results in

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
