Pre-integration tests failing

[Alan Burlison]

I'm trying to test stuff prior to submission, following the instructions 
at http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HowToContribute and even when using an 
unmodified git clone from the repo on a LLinux machine I've failed to 
get a clean test run. Normally I end up with a timeout error somewhere 
in hadoop-common, but it's taking an hour before it fails. Is that normal?
