Hmm, with a full testsuite run for the HEAD (validate, so no profiling)
on OS X i386 I get:

OVERALL SUMMARY for test run started at Wed Mar 30 19:06:13 BST 2011
    2710 total tests, which gave rise to
    9066 test cases, of which
       0 caused framework failures
    1701 were skipped

    7070 expected passes
     242 expected failures
       0 unexpected passes
      53 unexpected failures

The fast testsuite gave:

OVERALL SUMMARY for test run started at Wed Mar 30 13:54:50 BST 2011
    2710 total tests, which gave rise to
    9062 test cases, of which
       0 caused framework failures
    6662 were skipped

    2313 expected passes
      84 expected failures
       0 unexpected passes
       3 unexpected failures

(the testsuite may have changed slightly between the two runs)

So I don't think there's any problem in HEAD, at least.


Thanks
