What happened to test 199 'parallel autotest and signal handling'?
I assume that causes trouble for you as well?  If yes, please show
its log as well.  You can run it alone, and including verbose and
trace output already on stdout/stderr with something like
  make check TESTSUITEFLAGS='-v -d -x 199'

What shell is ${CONFIG_SHELL-/bin/sh} and which exact bash version?
Do you have SIGPIPE ignored in your calling process (the one calling
make check)?

Thanks,
