I can reproduce this.  Looks like all problems are with the tests in
ssl_drop_unittest.cc:

  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:182: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:71: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:182: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:71: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:422: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:451: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:380: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:474: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:474: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:71: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:71: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:71: Failure
  ssl_drop_unittest.cc:95: Failure

It’s a bit difficult to find actual test failures in the logs because it
mentions “error” and “failed” and the like a lot.  This is a test that
counts ACKs after dropping parts of the messages / datagrams /
handshake.  The failing tests seem to consistently come up short on ACKs
– they are not always zero but usually much lower than they are expected
to be.

Just disabling the ssl_drop_unittest.cc was not sufficient.  It was only
when I forced the build to take place on one of the Overdrive machines
that the build succeeded.

I only built it with the ssl_drop_unittest.cc disabled:

It’s possible that this is not actually necessary.
