Re: libffi test failure due to DejaGNU?

["Andy Tai" <atai at atai dot org>]

Hi, I checked out the current CVS sources and tried to run the test
suite on a 32-bit x86 machine running Fedora 7.

I got an error that seems to be due to dejaGNU rather than libffi:

(output from "make check")

Thanks for any hints on how to fix this...  I really like to see if
the test suite can pass on x86
