This is actually a different issue, which doesn't show up on sn-devel
but does on many other systems.  The base.dir2 test now spins on ext4
systems (has done for a number of months now). 

This causes two failures and >10 mins of 100% CPU use while we wait for
a maximum runtime.  The attached patch should skip it. 

It doesn't happen on sn-devel (or at least didn't), and I normally run
my full tests there, so I've not patched this before.
