On IRIX 6.5, I got this:
$ make check
Making check in gllib
make check-am
Making check in glm4
Making check in gltests
make check-recursive
make check-TESTS
sh[9]: 34324 Alarm call
FAIL: test-memmem
PASS: test-stdbool
PASS: test-stdint
PASS: test-string
PASS: test-strstr
PASS: test-wchar
===================
1 of 6 tests failed
===================
The reason is that test-memmem on this machine takes about 13 seconds
without time limitation, whereas test-strstr needs about 3 seconds. So
it's needed to increase these allowed times.
Also, even on a fast machine, the CPU may be shared by many processes,
so that sometimes you only get 5% or 10% of the CPU.
I'm therefore applying this:

* tests/test-memmem.c (main): Increase maximum allowed time.
* tests/test-strstr.c (main): Likewise.
