As per summary, running the jit-tests suite creates a file in the current directory.  This should not happen.
From jit-test/tests/basic/bug908915.js:

    // Suppress the large quantity of output on stdout (eg from calling
    // dumpHeap()).
    os.file.redirect(null);

I guess this doesn't work as expected.  Were you intending to make this throw away output in this case?

Oops! Yes, this is me. I just changed the interface of that function, and I thought the null usage was no longer needed with the new API. It wasn't very long ago that I did that redirect to null, either, so I should have remembered.

Thanks for tracking it down.
