According to Albert Chin on 6/20/2008 5:52 PM:
| On Redhat 7.1, Redhat 9, and RHEL 2.1 with the default compiler:
|   $ ./gnulib-tool --test --with-tests fseeko ftello
|   ...
|   PASS: test-binary-io.sh
|   ../../gltests/test-fseeko.c:58: assertion failed
|   ../../gltests/test-fseeko.sh: line 3: 10800 Aborted
|   ./test-fseeko${EXEEXT} 1 <"$srcdir/test-fseeko.sh"
|   FAIL: test-fseeko.sh

These have been reported before; stemming from deficiencies in older
glibc's ungetc() implementation.  The tests have been improved in the
meantime from when it was first reported, but it would take an actual gdb
session and probably the addition of a gnulib ungetc module to work around
it; I'm not sure how much effort that will take.
