This time validate-formats-on-disk completed but validate-formats-in- 
memory hung. "validate" is still running, using around 85% CPU, but  
the log file was last modified 3.5 hours ago and ends as follows:


$ tail validate-formats-in-memory.log-t
   test 727: XBM/Undefined/TrueColor/16-bits... pass.
   test 728: XPM/Undefined/TrueColor/8-bits... pass.
   test 729: XPM/Undefined/TrueColorMatte/8-bits... pass.
   test 730: XPM/Undefined/Grayscale/8-bits... pass.
   test 731: XPM/Undefined/GrayscaleMatte/8-bits... pass.
   test 732: XPM/Undefined/Palette/8-bits... pass.
   test 733: XPM/Undefined/PaletteMatte/8-bits... pass.
   test 734: XPM/Undefined/PaletteBilevelMatte/8-bits... pass.
   test 735: XPM/Undefined/Bilevel/1-bits... pass.
   test 736: XPM/Undefined$


So, the log isn't even complete. Something happened before it could  
finish writing its output.
