I forgot to cc parrot-dev. I've verified that the problem doesn't exist 
anymore and got moritz to close the ticket.

Here's what I wrote in the ticket:

You are correct, the described problem does not exist anymore. The test
still has a problem on solaris, though, which (as indicated by the skip
marker) is noted in TT #457. So this ticket can indeed be closed (just
not by me for lack of permissions).
