Non-reproducible failure in RestartEventLogging test in `threaded1` way.
Summary
Running validate
by hand the test typically succeeds, but on one run I got:

The expected value is:
includes/rts/EventLogFormat.h:#define EVENT_HEADER_BEGIN 0x68647262 /* 'h' 'd' 'r' 'b' */
but we got '\0\x12\0\0'.
Steps to reproduce
Not easily reproducible, could even be a hardware glitch, though that seems unlikely...
Expected behavior
The test should ideally pass consistently
