Another test failure on 32bit architectures

[TheTincho]

Hi,

I've got reports of prometheus 0.15.1 failing to build due to tests not passing on i386. armel, and armhf. In the three cases the message is the same:

--- FAIL: TestEvictAndLoadChunkDescsType0 (0.21s)
    storage_test.go:1176: Expected number of chunkDescs to decrease, old number 79, current number 79.

Any idea of what can be causing this? Another unspecified behaviour maybe?

Thanks for the report. I guess I'm most qualified to investigate. As usual, very overloaded, so despite this being assigned to me, anybody feel free to jump in... :)

This happens on 64bit as well: #944 -- I hold a local patch that disables the test.

[TheTincho]

If this is a time-dependant test, then I guess I will disable it completely for the Debian build...

Closing this one, as it is a dupe of #944.
