Subject: Random test failures
One of my smokers reported a test failure yesterday. When I wanted to inspect it I could not reproduce it immediately. So I put my machine under load and let the test run in an endless loop and it did not take long until I had it reproduced. So the FAILs seem to be timing issues and reproducible. Let me know if you need further info Thanks!

Ah. A timing-related fail. I know there's some issues in there to do with rounding errors. I need to look into them sometime, probably either by forcing the rounding, or by making the tests less sensitive to it. I'm not aware of a timing failure, but I'll look into it and see if I can reproduce it. -- Paul Evans
