Although "gcc -fcheck-pointer-bounds -mmpx -static" does not produce
real findings (only a dozen of false positives), it is good to avoid
havoc. Namely, two of the gnulib tests produce an endless series of
"Saw a #BR!" messages in the log file, thus filling up the disk, whatever
size it may have. Here is the workaround.

tests: Avoid havoc with "gcc -fcheck-pointer-bounds".
* tests/test-fprintf-posix2.c: Skip the test when -fcheck-pointer-bounds
is in use.
* tests/test-printf-posix2.c: Likewise.
