Hi Andreas,
Thank you for the report.
I presume you have found a way to make that test fail.
Would you please attach the tests/test-suite.log file that
was created from a failing "make check" run?

    * tests/mb-non-UTF8-performance: Avoid false-positive failure
    when run on certain AMD processors.
