Subject: 31.0.50; macOS: Intermittent hangs in proced tests
Date: Sun, 9 Mar 2025 14:45:37 -0400

I see intermittent hangs in proced tests on macOS, with an Emacs running
at 100% CPU.  I have to kill the test manually.

I see this in test/lisp/proced-tests.log:

Running 6 tests (2025-03-09 12:14:54+0100, selector ‘(not (or (tag
:expensive-test) (tag :unstable) (tag :nativecomp)))’)
   passed  1/6  proced-color-test (0.568210 sec)

I can reproduce the hangs using:
    counter=1; while true; do echo "Run #$counter"; \
        make -C test proced-tests; ((counter++)); done

From trying this three times, I got the below results, which seem to
suggest that the only test that doesn't hang is 'proced-color-test'.

This is quite disruptive, so I've disabled the tests on macOS for now
(commit 8ea65ac642c), until we can get to the bottom of this.
