ahal: hg says you wrote this test. My commit changes `utils.py` so that every line of test output is run through `fix_stacks.py` instead of `fix_linux_stack.py`. Somehow this caused this test to fail. Do you have any ideas how this might have happened? If the test triggers an assertion then a stack trace could be printed, and it's possible something went wrong with `fix_stacks.py` when fixing that stack trace, but I can't see evidence of this in the log.

The test has a [TODO](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/7d0c94a0e9a9fe1f83553f49b10128567d21709d/testing/mochitest/tests/python/test_basic_mochitest_plain.py#85) that indicates the "failure" might not even be a failure; I'm not sure what to make of that.

I'm trying to run this test locally, but I haven't worked out how to do it yet. `./mach python-test --python 2 --subsuite mochitest` is used in the test on automation, but I get tons of Python errors when I try that locally. Can you tell me how to run this locally?

Thanks.

Ah, I found the problem: "Exception: cannot find `fix-stacks`; please run `./mach bootstrap`".

I'm still not pleased about getting backed out for failure of a tier2 test job that wasn't even running on try pushes.
