Hi,

This is probably the problem that the SVN "server" is not set up per-testcase, but globally. (I am speaking from memory here, it might be possible that this was fixed already.)

There are left-over trash directories. (Another indicator are the files in t/test-results/.)

My common workflow is to "make -j50 && make -j50 -k test", and if it fails, run only those tests that have left-over trash directories.

Ciao, Dscho
