Bug#652330: libapache2-mod-perl2: occasional t/modperl/pnotes2.t failures

Package: libapache2-mod-perl2
Version: 2.0.5-4
Severity: normal

I'm seeing occasional failures with t/modperl/pnotes2.t, mostly with
apache2-mpm-prefork but also once or twice with apache2-mpm-worker when
the system is loaded.

It's pretty clearly about this part of the tests:

    select undef, undef, undef, 0.2;  # give it time to write the logfile

Filing this mostly to document the issue. It's clearly not feasible to
try and fix the raciness, and I don't recall seeing this happen on the
buildds even on slower architectures. If it becomes a problem, it should
be easy to raise the timeout.
