In #615, the helper function `machine()` was created and used within the vmwarefusion test suite (amongst others) to wrap a platform-specfic binary during the test suite. In #1034, it appears that this name was changed to the normal docker-machine binary, which can incoke the system-installed one, not the recently compiled one, potentially testing the incorrect binary.

Docker Machine
Machine lets you create Docker hosts on your computer, on cloud providers, and inside your own data center. It creates servers, installs Docker on them, then configures the Docker client to talk to them.
It works a bit like this:
$ docker-machine create -d virtualbox dev
INFO[0000] Creating SSH key...
INFO[0000] Creating VirtualBox VM...
INFO[0007] Starting VirtualBox VM...
INFO[0007] Waiting for VM to start...
INFO[0041] "dev" has been created and is now the active machine.
INFO[0041] To point your Docker client at it, run this in your shell: eval "$(docker-machine env dev)"
$ docker-machine ls
NAME ACTIVE DRIVER STATE URL SWARM
dev * virtualbox Running tcp://192.168.99.127:2376
$ eval "$(docker-machine env dev)"
$ docker run busybox echo hello world
Unable to find image 'busybox:latest' locally
