Yes, that was misleading to me! I saw the build success on i386 and I thought the fix was "do the test but always succeed, with print of the failures".
So fine, we will see what ubuntu people do for fixing the issue :-)

I agree with that. > Since you

To be fair, I should note that we have very similar problems in Debian/sid. I find very often that the build (or tests) fail with the latest compilers and libraries. This particular upload took me three tries to build (with apt-get upgrade in between). I was quite shocked that it also built on the i386 autobuilder.
