 '''Context''': XO-1.5 B2, q3a29, 128Mb USB stick 124000 blocks, populated
 with #6219 test script version 4fc430486afe344f873d77dbf5644dca42d6dadc
 run on os108.

 '''Symptom''': test script does not complete, "test 0017 rename the copy"
 is the output before the hang, no further output after ten minutes, no
 response to frame key.  Tail of serial port output as follows:

 {{{
 test 0015 copy a file
 test 0016 display the copy
 hello world
 test 0017 rename the copy
 }}}

 Removing the USB stick results in error messages:

 {{{
 Abort: Flushbuf error
 <buffer at ff9cda00>:66: Flushbuf error
 test 0018 delete the renamed copy
 }}}

 Continued no response to frame key interrupt.

 References: test suite is available at http://dev.laptop.org/~quozl/6210/
 which is both a git repository and usable via HTTP.
