The test seemed to incorrectly think that query_safe() takes an argument that describes what the query does, similar to e.g. command_ok(). Until commitbd8d9c9bdfthe extra arguments were harmless and were just ignored, but when commitbd8d9c9bdfintroduced a new optional argument to query_safe(), the extra arguments started clashing with that, causing the test to fail. Backpatch to v17, that's the oldest branch where the test exists. The extra arguments didn't cause any trouble on the older branches, but they were clearly bogus anyway.
