What my approach will be is to think through how to deal with this.
It might be that I can come up with a simple strategy, and if so, I will
make the changes.

But yes, I never had considered this in any of my rcutorture design or
implementation, so there is likely to be 15 years worth of bugs that
would need to be fixed.

Unless I can come up with something a bit more targeted.  Which might
happen.  It sometimes has in past encounters with this sort of thing.  ;-)
