Comment (by jinmei):

 Replying to [comment:5 naokikambe]:

 > I'd like to stop working for it by guessing randomly. I would not have
 any other good idea soon. So should we pull this ticket out of the current
 sprint? I would remove the branch from the repository if so.

 At this point I think we should close this ticket as "wontfix", and
 create a separate new ticket for a complete solution.

 BTW, even if it may be quite specific to NetBSD (although I sometimes
 see similar failure on my OSX laptop), for a "complete" solution I'd
 like to suggest getting rid of threads.  I believe we should be able
 to introduce proper mock classes for most, if not all, of the tests
 without requiring inter-process communication and blocking operations.
 Threads are too tricky for primitive things like unit tests, and a
 perfect recipe for disaster.
