-<para>As discussed earlier, we don't recommend running the test suites for the
-temporary tools here in this chapter. If you still want to run the Gettext test
-suite anyway, the following command will do so. However, you should be aware
-that the Gettext test suite is known to experience failures under certain host
-conditions -- for example, when it finds a Java compiler on the host (Note: an
-experimental patch to disable Java is available from the patches project). Not
-only that, the Gettext test suite takes an excessive amount of time to run and
-is not considered critical:</para>
