 While wondering why #21966 wasn't caught during consdiff code fuzzing, I
 noticed that in the C implementation failing to apply a generated diff is
 not a reason to assert, but rather an LD_BUG log message is generated.
 Unapplying the 21966 fix and fuzzing promptly leads to the discovery of
 that bug. I think it might make sense to ensure any BUG message that gets
 triggered fails an assertion if we're currently fuzzing?
