@RonnyPfannschmidt - thanks, that worked exactly as you wrote, I'll probably merge this tomorrow if nobody objects. Sorry about the long delay - I wanted to finish a minor issue in another project first, but that took unexpectedly long.

One question though: I used pytest_runtest_logreport with tryfirst. If anyone else uses the same hook also with tryfirst and wants to access the filesystem in that hook, that might or might not work, depending on the order the hooks are called (if I understand that correctly). Is this something I just have to live with (as it is unlikely to happen), or is there a canocical way to handle this?

Currently there's no explicit order, I recommend a tryfirst hook wrapper as starting point plus logged a issue that's dependents on The pluggy issues about more explicit ordering

There are some issues in pluggy related to ordering, the first being this issue.

This is a reminder to use the improved mechanism to ensure that pyfakefs is paused before other implementer of the reporting hook are involved, if such a mechanism will be added.
