The syncrepl patch broke the CSN queue, which has caused out-of-order updates 
in test050. I have reverted it. Every write operation begins with a queued CSN 
and ends by graduating a CSN. You removed the enqueueing step, and so the 
queue contents were invalid.

test058 has the same number of errors with or without the syncrepl patch, so I 
don't think it was relevant to the issues you were addressing.

I'm still skeptical about the syncprov half of the patch. The two patches were 
actually unrelated, the syncprov patch takes effect regardless of the syncrepl 
patch.
