Yes, it's not always failing, but it's been happening for a few days now
on the buildbot:

  http://randomsample.de/org-buildbot

First time it happened was after this commit

  http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/commit/?id=22c652599c8bfedcd27e78d7ad9544826eae7dd0

but it looks harmless. Could very well be something else that triggers
this.
