OK, understand now. The Solaris test failed in a place where it would
have been good if Linux had done so; this has revealed that the relcache
init file deletion required in some places was actually failing. The
path was never set correctly in the first place, it appears. I've
updated the TODO to reflect the new bug report.

I've almost finished hacking a solution. I'll test and commit tomorrow,
since it's a fairly standalone problem, if fiddly.
