+Avoid running randomized tests on the build daemons
+
+These tests are racy and can fail in subtle ways depending on the
+machine load and speed.  Basically `interimap --watch=1` is spawnedin
+the background, then random events (new messages, deletions, flag
+changes, etc.) are sent for for one minute, and the background process
+is later terminated and the mail stores compared.  The problem is how to
+stop the background process after the loop.  What's done right now is it
+waits for 5 seconds and sends a SIGTERM; unfortunately $n sec is
+arbitrary and might not be enough, depending on the machine and load.
+Ideally a SIGUSR1 would cause it to continue until a clean state is
+reached, then stop.
+
+These tests most sense in the context of upstream development, so for
+now we skip them in the Debian context.
