[zeromq-dev] Mountain Lion build issues: strndup error, and 'make check' gave "1 of 20 tests failed" on test_shutdown_stress

[Pieter Hintjens]

I've started on a solution to this:

https://github.com/hintjens/libzmq/commit/32fa426e61b92bdd0929990cebc799839cc335a7

(Pull request waiting to be merged).

It's a system check that runs at the start of the self-tests, and
asserts that we can open at least 1,000 sockets, or prints a helpful
message. We could expand this to other known trouble areas.

We do not want the tests to rely on "sudo" or some other privilege elevator to increase the number of FDs. Perhaps there should be a warning printed on OSX when this specific test fails along with a short instruction on how to manually fix it.
