Thanks for digging these up. After merging the actions.py part of r33974,
the test at least runs, but fails on the directory case (which was added
in r34053) due to missing UUID in the 'info' output (the file case
passes). After I also merged r33775, r33782, r33786, and r33788, the
whole test passed.
I'll look more closely later tonight.
