Hello Gnulib,

The ‘test-lock’ test as shipped with gettext-0.19.8.1 fails to complete
(or hangs?) on machines with 32+ cores, as reported here:

  https://bugs.gnu.org/26441

Does that ring a bell?

Mathieu Othacehe found that this is fixed by gettext commit
1afbcb06fded2a427b761dd1615b1e48e1e853cc but writes:

> 480d374e596a0ee3fed168ab42cd84c313ad3c89 in gnulib.

Could you clarify this?

Thanks in advance,
Ludo’.
