I changed it to just filter the entire stack trace out for these errors (both
normal and XML cases). The syscall name is still present in the error
string. This allows a one or more alternative expected output files to be
removed for several tests, which is A Very Good Thing.
Also, I killed filter_test_paths because it was weird and clumsy and the
above change obviated most of its use and the remaining effects could be
achieved in other ways.
Also, I fixed up the scalar* tests a little and they now pass on my machine,
(and hopefully at least some other machines) for the first time ever!

--fill-free=<hexnumber>, which cause malloc'd(etc) and free'd(etc)
blocks to be filled with the specified value. This can apparently be
useful for shaking out hard-to-track-down memory corruption. The
definedness/addressability of said areas is not affected -- only the
contents. Documentation to follow.
