Thanks for looking into it. The failure started with commit 
2019-08-05T11:09:26Z!michael.albinus@gmx.de 
(6c1d0d53b34d9350d55ebbd83ea56aa751a55f1b), which predates those time-conversion 
changes.

Thanks, I didn't know that. But that's confusing, as it's natural to assume that 
if FOO is an individual check, then 'make FOO' will run it the same way that 
'make check' would. Would it make sense to change this test to be more natural?
