Re: More test reports please

[Chong Yidong <cyd@gnu.org>]

I got a report of a possible regression.  It's on an unusual setup
(Ubuntu running on VMware), and I can't reproduce the problem on my
(non-VM) machine.  It doesn't seem like a show-stopper, but if anyone
has a similar setup, please try to reproduce it and report back.
Thanks.
