Looking through my own builder's logs, I see at least three
failures of these tests on different days (Feb. 29 and March 2
and 3):

http://pspp.benpfaff.org/~blp/pspp-master/20120229030501/testsuite.dir/
http://pspp.benpfaff.org/~blp/pspp-master/20120302030501/testsuite.dir/
http://pspp.benpfaff.org/~blp/pspp-master/20120303030503/testsuite.dir/

Must be something nondeterministic at work.
