I tried multiple runs on my box and got no repro. However, by code inspection I can see, that due to some concurrency on the test code, how both errors could happen. In theory the fix can happen on any system not only Windows. The fix should be entirely on the test code. Giving that this one seems hard to repro I'm giving it a low priority on my work queue, if some volunteer wants to fix them, please do so.

Removing needs triage based on @pjanotti's comment.

Hit the first one on my fork - documenting here to give a sense of frequency so we can prioritize them accordingly
