If it's not in the auto group, then it's not expected to function as
a reliable regression test. There are few tests around the
xfs/100 to xfs/130 that fall into this category. Some were tests
that were never completed, others were simply a method of exercising
the functionality and not intended to have deterministic output
and hence "always fail".
given the amount of commented out functionality and comments like
"# not yet working properly?" in xfs/106 leads me to beleive it
falls into the former category of "unfinished".
Cheers,
Dave.
