Let the tests run much longer, and here's the final score.

The timer test is the only item that failed, it looks like.
Where do I look for that?

Actually the message queue test *is* supposed to run for a while.  It 

even says so:
....
ok 55 - Send with no receiver
ok 56 - receive into undersized buffer returned error (-1)
# Single receiver, single sender tests:
#   priority-based scheduler, sent 4 messages
#   scheduler not strict priority, sent 5 messages
ok 57 - 10 of 10 messages sent with sender pauses
# Single receiver, multiple sender tests:
# This test takes 5 minutes...
