I've had the same problem in some test.  If I remember correctly it had to do
with the path index.  What I did in the end in my doctest was to delete the
REQUEST attribute that the index used for caching.  It looks a bit weird to
have a delete_interfering_request_to_fix_test() all the time, but it worked.
