tests/system/bindctl is broken and fails. There seem to be several
issues:
- statistics format seems to be old (there's no '<' or '>' in recent
versions, but the tests assume that)
- the consistency assumption seems to be incorrect (there's a
reference to an open ticket (#1941), which is probably the reason)
- there's a timing issue on when b10-auth is ready to answer queries.
it's now more tricky now the data source config happens
asynchronously in a separate thread.
The last one could be worked around with some amount of sleeping
(there are already some), but that's not really reliable, and sleeping
isn't a good practice anyway (it will make the tests take
unnecessarily longer).
So I'm going to disable the test for now. To fix this, I'd rather
suggest migrating to a lettuce test. It has a more sophisticated way
to detect the readiness of servers.
