Tests Hang

[David E. Wheeler]

Howdy,

I just built 5.0.2 from source on Mac OS X 10.7 (darwin 11). Running `make check` hangs:

make  check-TESTS
PASS: t-addsub
PASS: t-cmp
PASS: t-mul
PASS: t-mul_i
PASS: t-tdiv
PASS: t-tdiv_ui
PASS: t-fdiv
PASS: t-fdiv_ui
PASS: t-cdiv_ui

It stopped there, and I let it go for about an hour before I killed it. I'm seeing a similar hang in the Math-BigInt-GMP Perl distribution's tests:

 make test
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 /usr/local/bin/perl "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t
t/00sig.t ..... skipped: Set the environment variable TEST_SIGNATURE to enable this test.
t/01load.t .... 1/2 # Testing Math::BigInt::GMP 1.36, Perl 5.014001, /usr/local/bin/perl
#   with Math::BigInt 1.994
t/01load.t .... ok   
t/02pod.t ..... ok   
t/03podcov.t .. ok   
t/bigfltpm.t .. ok         
t/bigintg.t ... ok       
t/bigintpm.t .. 1014/3575 

Known issue by chance?
