Dan, I mostly retract the above. On FreeBSD-10.3 I have never had a 'make test' failure due to this test. However, just now, I ran this test by itself first with your patch and then with the crucial line from your patch commented out.
#####
commit e7619ccdfa0f8562897ad922b44837e5f65194e9
Files=1, Tests=217, 0 wallclock secs ( 0.03 usr 0.02 sys + 0.00 cusr 0.04 csys = 0.09 CPU)
Result: PASS
0.34 real 0.06 user 0.08 sys

with line 293 commented out
Files=1, Tests=217, 74 wallclock secs ( 0.02 usr 0.02 sys + 0.47 cusr 0.59 csys = 1.10 CPU)
Result: PASS
74.16 real 0.51 user 0.65 sys

So the data speaks. This test does complete on FreeBSD-10.3, but not in an acceptable length of time. I infer that there' some underlying problem that is less severe on 10.3 than on 11 or 12.
Thank you very much.
