The Random Config Job takes random configure values and we consider a combination that configure rejects as a success. The plan behind the job is that either configure rejects a combination or the build needs to

Ah, I'd thought that the fuzzing logic in configure.ac would "filter out" all fuzzed configuration requests that would be rejected (i.e., that the "Random Config Linux builder" autogen.sh step should never fail).

succeed. It is unfortunate that during the update of the underlying VM we see potential flase positives right now but we can just disable the job until the machine has been updated.

I don't really mind about the temporary false positives. Rather than temporarily disabling this job (or any other Jenkins jobs on gandalf, which currently all fail), I'd rather like to see that someone updated that machine accordingly (as I'd requested in a mail to what I understand are all the maintainers of that machine).
