pthread_mutex_timedlock(3) is broken and it does not work at all for me, not as a standard mutex (like pthread_mutex_lock(3), sufficiently lengthy timeout makes it a good approximation) neither as a timed variant. If the test is expected to fail, you should mark it xfail with a reference to a PR so that it doesn't draw needless attention to itself. The autobuild system is designed to detect and flag unexpected failures; expected ones should be documented in the PR database instead.
