So I was constantly getting a very strange error on this test. Until about an hour ago, I was constantly getting an error along the lines of a ClassCastException, "unable to cast String to Patch". I don't have the actual text any longer, because it suddenly stopped happening.

I didn't make any code changes to suddenly affect this correctly. I don't know why it suddenly started working, and I don't know why it wasn't working in the first place. @sethbrayman was able to duplicate the failure on his macbook, and then it also stopped happening, in fact it stopped happening there first. And then I was no longer able to reproduce the failure.

It concerns me greatly that I ran into this failure so often and then cannot encounter it any longer. Heisenbugs are the worst.
