Thank you for the report.  However, this is not a bug.  XFAIL means
eXpected FAILure, and as such, everything is working correctly.

But if 'make check' reported that some test failed, then there should be
a test actually listed as FAIL not XFAIL.  If that is the case, please
send details!

Otherwise I'm closing this bug for now.

Thanks,
Ralf
