   pthread_mutex_timedlock(3) is broken and it does not work at all for me,
   not as a standard mutex (like pthread_mutex_lock(3), sufficiently
   lengthy timeout makes it a good approximation) neither as a timed variant.

If the test is expected to fail, you should mark it xfail with a
reference to a PR so that it doesn't draw needless attention to
itself.

The autobuild system is designed to detect and flag unexpected
failures; expected ones should be documented in the PR database
instead.
