Major - P3 In a WT-6563 debug=(release_evict) was added to the cursor api. However the new config wasn't added to __wt_cursor_cache_get's exclusion list as such it can be specified on open and wiredtiger will use a cached cursor instead of opening a new one.
By using a cached cursor the flag we're interested in WT_CURSTD_DEBUG_RESET_EVICT, is never set and the cursor doesn't work as expected.
The fix is pretty simple it should look like this:
diff --git a/src/cursor/cur_std.c b/src/cursor/cur_std.c
