Does it still happen with the latest (3-commit) series? I suspect the most-likely to cause test failures would be the --abbrev[-commit] changes, though I suppose "intermittent" could point to a memory problem, which is more likely to be from "make it easier to add new formats" or "add infrastructure..."

Haven't been able to reproduce here (just running make -m4 in a while-loop all night) Any specific tests failing?
