Another thing that is interesting is that when I run make -j8
check-world, the overall tests appear to succeed even though there are
failures mid-way through:
test tablefunc ... FAILED (test process exited with exit code 2)
...but then later we end with:
ok
All tests successful.
Files=11, Tests=80, 251 wallclock secs ( 0.07 usr 0.02 sys + 19.77
cusr 14.45 csys = 34.31 CPU)
Result: PASS
real 4m27.421s
user 3m50.047s
sys 1m31.937s
That's unrelated to the current problem of course, but it seems to
suggest that make's -j option doesn't entirely do what you'd expect
when used with make check-world.
