cpan/IPC-Cmd/t/01_IPC-Cmd.t: transient errors on Darwin/PPC

I am reporting this problem to the list rather than RT because, while it 
occurred during a normal 'make test', I have been unable to reproduce 
the errors when manually running the test file in question.

Looks like you failed 2 tests of 467.
../cpan/IPC-Cmd/t/01_IPC-Cmd.t .................................... Dubious,
test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/467 subtests
         (less 140 skipped subtests: 325 okay)
##########

However, failures were not reproduced when test was run manually:

##########
$ cd cpan/IPC-Cmd/t
[t] 524 $ ../../../perl -I../../../lib 01_IPC-Cmd.t 1>out 2>err
[t] 525 $ cat err
# IPC::Run: 0   IPC::Open3: 1.14
##########

I have never before seen errors in this test file on this machine. 
Thoughts?

Thank you very much.
