unreliable tests

[p-alik]

1. t/14-sleep.t
   When I was installing/testing 2.004.001 using 'cpan', t/14-sleep.t hanged
   during either test back to gearman org #4 or Add missing LICENSE meta name in the Makefile.PL script #5 ("4/?" was displayed on the screen).... After I
   gave up and hit control-C, I ran the test again, and then it worked.
2. t/50-wait_timeout.t
   http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/5db73e0c-1589-11e7-807f-f398cc11fead

t/50-wait_timeout.t .............

Just some context for (1) in the above post: It occurred on CentOS 7.3 using /usr/bin/perl (v5.16.3) when tested using the cpan command. I could not reproduce it running "make test" from the command line outside of cpan, but I didn't try multiple times either.

These tests have been quite reliable lately. I'm not sure what caused them to be unreliable before, but I'm satisfied that this is likely no longer a problem. Are you still getting t/50-wait_timeout.t failures on cpantesters? If not, feel free to close this issue.
