It is not a real FTBFS indeed.
The test 'hpxtest' cost to much time and armel has a quite poor performance, so
the test is killed by sbuild.

So if we output some information when building, it will not be killed by sbuild.

in `test-drivers':

"$@" >$log_file 2>&1

------>>>>>>>>>>>

"$@" 2>&1 | tee $log_file

will fix this problem.
