I have never done a build with NIS.  tst-cancel2 doesn't normally fail.

I can't quite remember but I think that I added 
malloc/tst-malloc-thread-fail to the xfail list
as it shows as an XPASS in the last build.  We also had a random segv 
building intl/tst-gettext6
in one of the attempts.  I've not seen that before.

I've reached the conclusion that non of my kernel patches are helping 
with the random segmentation
faults.  Something else is causing them and possibly using the tmpfs for 
unpacking, etc, has mad things
worse.

I do build trunk outside the buildd.  Have a patch to fix pthread_cond_t 
issue and others.  Trunk built okay
a week or so ago.  However build last night failed due to a missing 
symbol link error (think symbol
was _init).
