Hi Frederic - (switching to bug-automake for tracking)

    https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/automake/2023-12/msg00034.html
    
    I ran `make check` for this release on Fedora-rawhide and got random
    failures. Multiple runs seem to show different failures on all arches 

Thanks for the report, and really sorry to hear it. I surmise
subsecond delay problems are back. Automake should fall back when not
using a brand-new (development) autoconf, but apparently this is not
happening. I'll have to investigate further, unless Zack or someone else
gets there first. --thanks, karl.

Hi Fredric - I hope this random timing bug is fixed now. If you're able
to try testing from the automake source tree
(https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/automake/), that would be great.
Else the next pretest should be coming along soon. --thanks, karl.

I'm going to close this bug about the random test failures, partly fixed
in #67670 and partly still open in #68808, but nothing to do
here. --thanks, karl.
