I wasn't clear enough.  *ALL* the tests time out for me.

As a test, I rebuilt the kernel enabling CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ=y and the 
tests now work.  Too bad that this is not documented.  Perhaps a mention 
of the kernel requirements for the regression tests in the README or 
INSTALL files would be appropriate.
