Flakey tests are frustrating, but I don't think they will block the release.
I think they are blockers. CouchDB already has a problem with downstream
maintainers keeping packages current. This effectively pushes these
problems onto the packagers. IMO, this is a critical PR issue as well.
Want to improve the project image? Quit shipping builds that require
hours of work for packagers. Additionally, failing tests block any
production packages for our company. I set these standards, and I don't
think this is unreasonable, nor different from what you'd find with
other companies using couchdb seriously. Encouraging packagers to
disable the test suite isn't good either. I still maintain a -1 and
think this build is broken.
Can you provide details of your segfault?
I made note of it in this post

Once the suite finally runs all the way through, I can manually get the
failing test to run on Fedora 18. Centos 6/Amazon Linux just segfaults.
While others may not think this is a -1, I think the tests should ship in a
condition that they are able to be run. Building should be getting better
for distros, not worse, this is a major regression from my perspective.
