Hello Kurt,

Thanks for this report, and sorry for the delay.

Can you expand a bit?  Are you seeing this test fail anywhere, and if
yes, can you post the verbose log of the failure, including all details
such as compiler/linker used, system this happens on etc.?  If no, I
guess you are questioning the validity of the test?

Note, I don't dispute that there may very well be a problem with the
test, but before I look at it in detail, it'd be good to have all the
details available.

Thanks,
Ralf
