I have done some diving and git bisecting into this. There are at least two
issues:
1. `Clinic.__init__` no longer works without passing in a filename. Because
soon after `if filename` in line 1726 [1] it calls `d('file')` which only works
if there is a `file` buffer.
This makes the odd line 38 [2] in clinic_test.py to fail miserably with
sys.exit. Deleting this line results in a proper test failure (22 test fail out
of 54), which is already much better than the sys exit message.
2. `Clinic` has shifted from using `field_destinations` to
`destination_buffers` in issue 23500. The test code did not change accordingly.
This means that we need to adapt the test code to the use
`destination_buffers`, and add it to the regular test suite. The whole
situation could only have happened because the test were not run regularly.
I would like to tackle this, but I am not entirely sure yet what should the
differences between FakeClinic and Clinic be. So I am studying it. Hints are
welcome.
