I have examined the logs, which suggest it was a false positive in a
parallelized "make check" run, due to that test's 3-second timeout. I
have tried repeatedly to reproduce that failure, so far without
success, but in coreutils development, with parallelized tests, we
fixed many hard-to-reproduce tests with small timeout limits like this
-- most of them now use 10 seconds as the limit, so I will change this
one, too (and several others) with the attached patch.

I have pushed your patch.

Subject: [PATCH] tests: standardize on 10-second timeouts to avoid rare false
 failure

In a parallel test run, it is not unusual to exceed a timeout of
1-3 seconds.  Increase several from 3 or fewer to 10 seconds.
* tests/skip-device: Increase timeout from 2 to 10 seconds.
* tests/grep-dev-null-out: Likewise, but s/1/10/.
* tests/pcre-invalid-utf8-input: Likewise, but s/3/10/.
* tests/dfa-match: Likewise.
* tests/pcre-invalid-utf8-infloop: Likewise.
* tests/pcre-infloop: Likewise.
* tests/max-count-overread: Likewise.
* tests/invalid-multibyte-infloop: Likewise.
