Maybe you are using TEST_DELTEMP=1? If so, remove it if you have  
enough disk space on the remote target. Most test sources that are  
later on used by other tests don't contain the necessary  
{ %neededafter } directive, so they are immediately deleted even when  
they are still required later

Alternatively, you can submit a patch that adds { %neededafter } to  
all affected tests).
