Thanks for the replies Dan and Roger.

OK. I will submit an RFR soon to guard the specific case that we've observed \
consistently failing (after ensuring that there aren't other failures that start \
occurring after that change). Part of me worries that this approach won't prevent \
future failures in case one of the GCs changes its behavior such that the  \
collections affect other unguarded objects in these tests.
