Just noticed a "make check" failure in current CVS, on Debian testing:

Running unif.test
FAIL: unif.test: make-shared-array: shared of shared

Any ideas?
	Neil

There's something wrong with making a shared array from another shared
array.  The base is or isn't offset or something.

I don't normally add tests that will immediately fail, but this one is
a bit obscure and might otherwise be forgotten.  (It's a real bug
though, it breaks my charting program.)

OK, thanks for explaining that.

Sounds OK to me.  You could make this an "expected" failure - which 
would increase the risk of us forgetting the problem, but also show that 
we are aware of it - but ideally the bug will be fixed soon, so it won't 
matter much either way.
