Automake 1.13.2 failed t/remake-configure-dependencies.sh in two
consecutive attempts on Ubuntu autobuilders. On inspection I found that
our autobuilder network happened to pick the same backend machine each
time, which was a relatively old one still using ext3. (Our newer
builders use ext4.) On running this test in a loop-mounted ext3
filesystem on my laptop, I reproduced the failure first time:

I think perhaps a sprinkling of $sleep is called for in this test?
