Hi,

I am currently experiencing sporadic test failures on Mac OS X 10.10.3:

Test Summary Report

  Failed tests:  36-37
  Non-zero exit status: 1

Result: FAIL
make[1]: *** [prove] Error 1
make: *** [test] Error 2

When I execute the tests individually they succeed. Sometimes running the testsuite succeeds sometimes it does not. For example now running the testsuite the first and second time showed no failures. Only the third run revealed the above.

Is anyone else experiencing this as well? I am seeing this on Junios master (f86f31ab33c3). The list of failed tests varies sometimes.

Cheers Heiko
