Yes, almost all GC-related tests are non-deterministic. Some are more likely to fail on 32-bit arches, too. I agree this can be confusing. In the past, some of these tests were changed to throw to 'unresolved instead of failing. This addresses the issue by not alerting users for non-issues. As a side effect, we basically ignore these tests, which isn=E2=80=99t good either. So I=E2=80=99d try to be caution and only move from fail to unresolved those tests, for which we routinely observe random failures. On my laptop and on Hydra, none of these tests fails, neither on x86_64 nor on i686, so I=E2=80=99d be inclined to let them as is. WDYT? Thanks, Ludo=E2=80=99.
