Those "win test (n)", at least some of them, seem to have been somewhat flaky [*1*]. If you are certain you did not break them with your change, you do not have to fix them yourself.

I am a wrong person to ask how the test failure that may [*2*] block GGG submission can be circumvented, as I am not involved in that machinery at all.

Thanks.

[Footnotes]

*1* Also I've seen osx-clang job time-out from time to time, without
    failing any specific test.  Re-running failed jobs from the menu
    often make them pass, which is why I said "somewhat flaky".

*2* I do not even know if GGG refuses to submit a series with a test
    failure, let alone if it allows to override such a safety if
    exists.
