Yes, I'm afraid  >_<

I'm a little perplexed by this, because I can't get the hacked-down 
runtest to succeed (short of running it in Valgrind). "./configure && make 
&& make check" on an x86 Linux system (with the patched runtest.c) is 
enough to get a failure---I can't see how it's not happening for you.

Could you try it in an out-of-source build? I noticed that this seemed to 
affect runtest's behavior before patching.

Failing that, may I ask what system environment you're using to test? At 
this point, I'm willing to set up a virtual machine to get the 
reproducibility of this issue nailed down.
