The test suite now passes most of the time on ci.d.n, since 2015-11.

The only recent failure there is
https://ci.debian.net/data/packages/unstable/amd64/libd/libdevel-gdb-perl/20160607_104749.autopkgtest.log.gz

Still, on the reproducible builds infra it FTBFS recently, due to the
exact same test failing:
https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/debian/rbuild/unstable/amd64/libdevel-gdb-perl_2.02-2.rbuild.log

I'm going to split the brittle test into two smaller ones, for
debugging purposes.

(Side note: that's a leaf package with only 4 votes on popcon. Just saying.)

Cheers,
