I'm with Dan on this... It seems like these 'fixes' are just lowering the expectations of tests when testing against a GLIBC system. It's perfectly appropriate to XFAIL them and let them fail if that is the case.

If you're concerned about test coverage being lower because though there are lots of assertions in a single test file, it only takes one failure to effectively hide the results of the others, then I think it makes more sense to find a way to split the test. That way the part that is XFAIL'd is a bit more minimal.


Cheers,
