### Describe the problem you're observing

The last test in the file t/0700-unifyfs-stage-full.t has the test tag:
test_might_fail
This shouldn't be necessary. We think it was put in at some point because Travis was tripping over that test. The test normally works correctly on real systems.

### Describe how to reproduce the problem

### Include any warning or errors or releveant debugging data

Research direction

Start with t/0700-unifyfs-stage-full.t, inspect the final test and its test_might_fail tag, then review the closed pull request #617 for context. Run that test on the supported environment and confirm it passes reliably without the tag; done means the workaround is removed and the test remains stable.
