We have
tst-codeset.sh:mkdir -p ${objpfx}domaindir/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES
tst-codeset.sh:mv -f ${objpfx}codeset.mo.$$
${objpfx}domaindir/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/codeset.mo
tst-gettext3.sh:mkdir -p ${objpfx}domaindir/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES
tst-gettext3.sh:mv -f ${objpfx}codeset.mo.$$
${objpfx}domaindir/de_DE/LC_MESSAGES/codeset.mo
Both tst-codeset.sh and tst-gettext3.sh try to update the same file. They
may fail at random with "make check -j 8" on a 8core machine.
