[DRE-maint] Bug#710433: ruby-curb: FTBFS on hurd-i386: test killed (for taking too long?)

[Aaron M. Ucko]

Source: ruby-curb
Version: 0.8.3-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source

The hurd-i386 build of ruby-curb failed:

  # Running tests:
  
  /.../ruby-curb-0.8.3/lib/curl/easy.rb:56: warning: uncaught exception from callback
  Killed
  rake aborted!
  Command failed with status (137): [/usr/bin/ruby1.9.1 -I"lib" -I"/usr/lib/rub...]

The build generally took almost three hours, so I suspect the build
server automatically killed it for (evidently) hanging.  Also, the
warning may well be unrelated, as successful builds reported it too.

Could you please take a look?

Thanks!
