so, I'm able to reproduce something that looks at least similar, locally. 

It looks like what is happening is that the first test that fails in a shard (i.e., same directory) is failing with the message "Timed out waiting for final message from web process". Subsequent tests in the same shard then are failing with the output from the previous test, as if the output from the test that did time out isn't getting thrown away properly, and we're not communicating back to run-webkit-tests that something weird happened, and so run-webkit-tests doesn't know to recover/restart WTR either.

I don't yet know why this is happening, and I don't know the code in WTR at all so I don't know if this sounds plausible. However, it should be easy to test/debug/work around, so I'm trying that now.
