Comment (by kcrisman):

 > > Also note that if it's 30 seconds ''without'' the patch, that's five
 times as long as the six seconds above - so mark would not exactly be a
 "typical" machine to be talking about timings on.

 multiplies the time (without even adding new doctests!) by a factor 12.
 I understand that.  I suppose we have somewhat orthogonal points.  My
 point is that we have often, in the past, lived with slowdowns if it meant
 correctness could be achieved.  (Though in this case there may have been
 some good reason to have the zero points, but it was never documented so
 we don't know why.)  Especially since there is a much smaller chance that
 anyone will ever use this function on a Sparc machine, and it's not
 actually breaking anything, it seems to be less of an issue to me.  I'm
 really not convinced why it's important to have every file test fully in
 less than six minutes anyway; it seems quite arbitrary.  But that is just
 my opinion :)
