[Nix-dev] Gnash and buildfarm.

		Hello.
	I noticed the following:
	1. Buildfarm trunk build fails over and over again.
	2. The only two packages from build-for-release that fail are updated
Gnash packages.
	3. The real build failure is DejaGNU. I understand that the problem is
in its test suite (relevant log lines are in the end of the message).
The failure occurs on both i686 and amd64 architectures.
	
	So, does anybody know what exactly is failing and how to fix it? Just
right now I disabled gnash in build-for-release just to get a MANIFEST
from buildfarm. I am going to re-enable gnash build afterwards, if I
forget to do it, someone please fix it.. I have launched a dejagnu build
to investigate a bit further. Ludovic, as you are GNU insider (and
author of both Gnash and DejaGNU expressions), I hope you have some
advice to give..
