Hm, I thought I had updated that before beta6. What it has now is

The parallel regression test script (gmake check) is known to lock up
when run under HP's default Bourne shell, at least in HPUX 10.20. This
appears to be a shell bug, not the fault of the script. If you see that
the tests have stopped making progress and only a shell process is
consuming CPU, kill the shell and start over with
gmake SHELL=/bin/ksh check
to use ksh instead.
