I noticed that the autobuilder failed only on solaris:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/2976390/log/raw
At first, I misdiagnosed it as a failure in another test (but that was
merely a skip), committed the following and immediately reverted it.

Subject: [PATCH] tests: test-vc-list-files-git.sh: skip if git is not
available
The real failure was here:
FAIL: test-localeconv (exit: 262)
=================================
test-localeconv.c:41: assertion failed
which corresponds to this line:
$ cat -n tests/test-localeconv.c|grep -B6 41
35 {
36 struct lconv *l = localeconv ();
37
38 ASSERT (STREQ (l->decimal_point, "."));
39 ASSERT (STREQ (l->thousands_sep, ""));
40 #if !defined __FreeBSD__
41 ASSERT (STREQ (l->grouping, ""));
Since that same test passes just fine on a Solaris 10 system
to which I have access, I'm going to ignore it for now.
