Re: glibc-2.3.4 test suite failure
[It probably makes sense to remove libc-alpha@ from Cc:, as glibc-2.3.4
is not an alpha release, and this configuration is known to work.]

This looks like a timeout. Try setting TIMEOUTFACTOR to 5 or something
(which will raise the timeouts by 5). I found I had to do that on all
but my fastest machine: the NPTL timeouts are suited for Ulrich's
(presumably blazingly fast) machines :)
(This stuff is the provenance of `test-skeleton.c' in the root of the
glibc source tree.)

There should be no need for that: your tools are right.
(Well, in a sense, you *are* building it from scratch...)
