Hi,
check 0.9.10-3 does not build on hurd-i386 [1].
The problem is due to the second-only precision which is available with
alarm in the replacement for the timer_* functions (not implemented yet
on Hurd), which causes few check failures in two tests.
I just reported the issue upstream [2] with a clean patch for the issue;
since that requires autoreconf, I'm providing a simplier patch which
just unconditionally switches the timer_settimer replacement to
setitimer; should cause no issues on Linux and kFreeBSD, since both
implement the timer_* functions.
Both patches (the one sent upstream and the one attached here) fix the
issue on Hurd.
