Right, I don't see how a timeout on 0% CPU would be implemented
well without an extra helper script or tool.

I'll go through all of them and verify. I've already added
BROKEN_ON_PLATFORM to ja-groff since the problem isn't specific to

(Of course the whole point of getting this bulk build going is to
identify packages to fix and then do so.)
