I've now completed a further build up to the end of chapter 6, on
the same machine _from_ 7.8-rc1 (i.e. the old "can it build itself"
test, but without getting hung up on whether or not the files are
identical).  This time, that test did NOT fail!

So, my revised view is now trimmed down to 'it may *sometimes* fail'.

Interestingly, I got a fourth failure in the perl tests - originally
only
        ../cpan/Socket/t/getnameinfo.t
        ../dist/IO/t/io_multihomed.t
        ../dist/IO/t/io_sock.t
now also
        ../cpan/Time-HiRes/t/itimer.t

Looks good.
