This is because armel is too slow to create enough threads in time.
It's easily worked around:

  * Slow down lock_free_registry test to let armel keep up (closes:

+Description: Slow down lock_free_registry test to let armel keep up
+ Test runs on armel don't manage to create all the threads before the target
+ time.  Add a couple of seconds so that this architecture can keep up.
