The main current issue is that several tests, at least when run under
sbuild/cowbuilder, enters infinite loops stat()-ing forever
"/PKG-INFO". I have been unable to find the cause, but it's somewhat
specific to the Debian build environment in conjunction with pytest.

In addition to that there are some test failures too, but they look easy
to fix (and the patches should probably be sent upstream for
integration).

I don't see myself having more time than I already devoted to this in
time for the next freeze. But if you're up to tackling this, I can
provide more info, e.g., I've a list of the affected tests, in case it
might help finding a pattern. The *general* pattern is that tests that
exec() stuff are impacted, but it's not specific enough (at least for
me) to pinpoint the issue.

Cheers
