I'm not a testsuite maintainer, but I think this patch should be
approved. I tried it out on my IA-64 GNU/Linux box and this test
passed very quickly whereas, before, it would run for over 10 minutes
and then evenutally fail due to timing out.
(Note to Michael: You might want to put RFA or RFC or some sort in
the subject line next time. When I first read it, I thought it had
already been applied.)
Thanks for fixing this problem.
