libidn-1.24 validation test problem

[Nelson H. F. Beebe]

Yesterday afternoon, I started builds of libidn-1.24 in our test lab
(about 25 flavors of Unix), and this morning, had a look at them.  The
Mac OS X and Solaris builds all succeeded and passed their validation
tests.

However, the SGI IRIX and all GNU/Linux (Alpha, PPC-32, PPC-64, SPARC,
x86, x86_64) and {Free,Net,Open}BSD builds are hung at this point in
the validation tests:

...
PASS: tst_nfkc

On one x86 system, there is more info:

PASS: tst_nfkc
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10
--9922-- DWARF2 CFI reader: unhandled CFI instruction 0:10

A check with the top utility show that they have 99% CPU utilization.
I have therefore installed the successes, and killed all of the
still-running builds.
