 On GCC-4.1.0 just ''compiling'' the test_binomial_real_concept test
 consumes over 1.6G of memory before I decide that the swapping is
 unacceptable and I kill it.  That leads me to suspect strongly that
 source:/trunk/status/explicit-failures-markup.xml#L3411 wrongly blames the
 running time of the test.  It seems to me that these tests might be made
 to work by breaking up the source files into chunks that are manageable by
 the compiler.

 I'm happy to give you access to a system where you can experience the
 issue firsthand if you don't have one yourself.
