autoconf-2.68's testsuite deterministically fails for me in test 205

Yeah, it's the test that is broken, not Autotest. The bug is known.
Sorry, I didn't manage to get it fixed in time for 2.68.
Thanks. This is what I had assume and wanted to hear ;)
I am going to temporarily disable this check.
FWIW, the test wrongly assumes that the output crosses a pipe buffer
boundary and thus elicits a SIGPIPE, which is simply not true on some
systems.
Some? It fails on all Linux distros, I've tried ;)
