Somehow I thought that porterbox access was annoying to get for a
non-DD DM (such as myself).

The rx event subsystem got a lot of attention before 1.8.0pre3 (and
was failing tests on some release architectures previously), but we
thought it was supposed to be in good shape; it's surprising to see
that there is still a test failure.  (I have no idea about the
rx/perf issue.)

I supsect it will be hard to make progress on this without the
involvement of someone with porterbox (or other box) access...
