If you have an interactive ppc64 machine (I'm guessing not, but someone
might), it would be interesting to run something like

cd test && count=0 && while ./T568-lib-thread.sh; do
   count=$((count + 1));
   echo $count
done

And see if the test is just flaky, and fails after some number of
repetitions.

FWIW, it passes 150 times on amd64.

I guess another thing to try would be serialize the test suite on the
low memory machines (set NOTMUCH_TEST_SERIALIZE to some non-empty value,
or remove 'parallel' from the path
