I didn't track it down to the exact commit but something in
the range 837d2b9f..d238d844 caused the order of the runtime
search path on the RuntimePath executable to be switched:

Fails:

 -Wl,-rpath,".../Tests/RuntimePath/B:.../Tests/RuntimePath/A"

Works:

 -Wl,-rpath,".../Tests/RuntimePath/A:.../Tests/RuntimePath/B"

That is the only difference in the generated build tree for
the test AFAICT.
