Comment (by ken@…):

 I'm (still) looking at trying to reinstate the tests (Andy commented them
 in r10369 when moving to 5.3.21). Failures in comparing after bulk delete
 or in checking that a transaction had been applied. Also, despite only 5
 jobs, it used up to 800% of an 8-core machine.

 First attempt to remove failures by using a lower number of parallel jobs
 did not work. In the output from running (but not in the logs) there are
 comments about db_repsite not being built, and I wonder if those messages
 are for the tests which fail. This time I used taskset to restrict to 4
 cores so I could do other things, loadavg often around 7 when other cores
 idle. But many tests barely load the machine, this is more time-based than
 SBU-based.

 According to gentoo, upstream strip the db_repsite sources (confirmed -
 mentioned in Makefile but not present) and they have a sed to remove them.
 They also have one other sed for a false positive - but let's see if I can
 get to that few errors.
