Symptoms on Linux: several tests, including bzip2, gzip and newline, get
stuck in a busy loop. No system calls are executed in that loop.

Waiting won't work, since I'll have to kill the hanging tests manually
(for a couple of toolsets). I'll restart the whole test cycle here.
Results will get published within 12-24 hours if everything goes well.
