Test Failures from latest CVS sources

Test Failures from latest CVS sources

[Vin Shelton]

On my linux 2.6.2 box (heavily modified Mandrake 9.0 system), I'm
seeing some test failures in builds from the latest CVS sources:
All the Y0? completion tests are failing:

For a brief time I was seeing these tests fail on a debian sarge system,
but after making some unrelated code changes (to zsh.h, which caused all
programs to be recompiled), the problem went away (even if I revert my
unrelated changes).  Weird.  I wonder if something hadn't gotten
rebuilt?  You might try doing a "make clean", rebuild, and see if the
problem persists.

Wayne,

Thanks for the suggestion, but I always tar over a fresh source tree
from cvs and then build in a separate directory, so I doubt that your
proposal will help.  I will investigate further when I get back to my
home system.

Thanks,
  Vin

It's very likely to be the continuing ptmx saga.  I shouldn't worry too
much until we get that sorted out.

Yes, this seems to be the cause.  I had made the manual tweak of
commenting out the HAVE_DEV_PTMX define in config.h (as suggested by
Bart) in order to get rid of a hang in the tests, and reverting that
change on one of my two test systems does cause the early Y* tests to
start failing again.  Strangely, reverting this change on the other test
system I was using (which I did try last night) did not cause these
failures (just the aforementioned hang), so I had assumed that this
change was unrelated to the failures based on that.  Instead, it just
appears to affect different Linux setups differently.
