So possibly was a waste of time, as it bisects to:

	commit 5e467e27b7c7a11ef47068138248003e873674a1
	Author: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx>
	Date:   Wed Jul 30 14:05:15 2014 -0700

	    [IA64] Wire up getrandom() system call

Which makes no sense at all :(

The times the testcase fails give some pretty spectacular error messages:
