I have disabled the test-poll self test on the gsasl 1.6.x branch which is a maintenance branch. For the 1.7.x development branch and subsequent stable 1.8.x branch we'll use the latest gnulib and hopefully this problem has been resolved -- I'll confirm this once I have pushed 1.6.2 out the door. /Simon
