Re: Automated report: NetBSD-current/i386 test failure

[Andreas Gustafsson <gson%gson.org@localhost>]

The NetBSD Test Fixture sent three reports listing the following
groups of commits, respectively:

The latter two reports are spurious, and the commits listed in them
have nothing to do with the breakage.  The reason for the spurious
reports is that a large number of t_ptrace_wait* test cases started
failing with the commit listen in the first report, but are not failing
in every run.  Tests that happened to pass in the first run and fail
four times in a row after that got reported one commit too late, etc.
