Evan, Yup, I knew all of that and that is what I have always done. This morning I got things to work by skipping the -j option of gmake to do parallel compiles, and the tests then worked.
Before I always did: configure gmake -j2 ifconfig.sh up (as root) gmake test Once I didn't do the parallel compile (-j2), the tests worked. But I did not see any failures from a parallel compile either. Weird.
