I just tested this on our porterbox and my patch isn't enough. With the patch, the test seems to hang. I had to disable the following tests to finish the tests. It *seems* that either the test runs quickly, within seconds, or gets a process at 100% cpu for at least several minutes. Killing the build doesn't kill the job that takes 100% cpu by the way, it remains running in the background. Killing it with sigterm didn't work, I used sigkill. Weirdly enough, when I started disabling tests in a different order, I also got a passing set with only disabling these: So the different tests also influence each other and the order matters. Even more weirdness, when I run each test stand alone, or only these latest three, they pass. ruby-msgpack is in the key package set. Can somebody with ruby expertise please have a look.
