This test tests for a bug that used to cause automake to hang. The
test works by running automake and then waiting a while to see if it
terminates. This doesn't work too well if the machine is slow for
some reason. In automake 1.4 the test waited for 5 seconds; in the
cvs version it waits for 15 seconds.
So, the probable answer is "don't worry about it".
