Yeah I'm spoiled, I do my testing on VMs hosted on a machine with
32GBs of RAM. :D

I don't think we have any problematic failure modes when the disk is
full. However, I can't imagine there's any sane way that the test
suite can know that the disk filled since the disk can fill in so many
places when running the test (between various calls inside the tests
or even between tests).

So I'm not sure there's any great way to resolve strange looking test
failures from disk space issues.
