It seems that there is some intermittent issue at Savannah.gnu.org

I got it mostly under control by reducing my MTU to 1400 from its
default of 1500 on my wireless interface. It would appear that
something was not dealing gracefully with packet fragmentation and/or
size. While I consider it most likely to have been a problem at my end,
it is at least conceivable that it might be a problem with the FSF's
network connections. Though I think that Savannah is on quite a
different net than most of the gnu.org stuff, so that's a bit unlikely.
At any rate, just wanted to throw this out for people who might want to
try whether fiddling with the MTU might make any difference with their
setup.
I had a similar problem 6 years ago which was resolved by
changing the MTU value. The details are recorded here:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2010-02/msg00400.html
Just in case these problems are something similar ...

Can't get anything here to work.
Tackling MTU doesn't help either.

Savannah suffering networking problems
posted by rwp, Fri 13 May 2016 10:58:25 PM UTC - 0 repliesLast
Friday May 6th Savannah was moved to new hosting in the same
datacenter with many various assorted related and unrelated changes.
Since that time there have been wide spread reports of networking
problems. The FSF admins are aware of the problem and are trying to
resolve it.
Hope they've success soon,

It seems whatever problem their networking had has now gone away, so I
have been able to at least pull and fetch.
However I cannot get a successful make doc after applying patches.
That is if start with a clean tree and then
autogen.sh --noconfigure
(make my own 'out of tree' build dir)
cd into build dir and then run ../configure --disable-optimising
make
make test-baseline
make doc
That all works.
If I stick a patch in the process I cannot get make doc to complete.
I.e.
autogen.sh --noconfigure
(make my own 'out of tree' build dir)
cd into build dir and then run:
../configure --disable-optimising
make
make test-baseline
cd .. (back into tree)
patch -p1 < diff.file (from Rietveld)
cd back into build dir
make clean (no problems)
make (passes)
make check (passes)
make doc fails and always with the same output (for the last three
patches I have tested for David, Carl and now Thomas Morley)

Also note this is not just local to one machine but both of the PCs I
use I - quite deliberately- used different distributions (Fedora 23 on
one and Ubuntu 15.10 on another), I also use j5, j6 or j7 depending on
the load of the PC at the time of testing.
Can someone else try to test any of the new patches submitted based on
current master and make sure that make check AND make doc both work
(after test-baseline and a patch has been applied)?
So I cannot with any confidence test patches properly and until I know
how to resolve this, someone else will have to *fully* test patches
instead of me.
Because of all the noise at Savannah I cannot really say when this
started to occur and also remember that both of these PCs run patchy
merge which also does make doc, so logic would state that the issue
started *after* the last merge but I cannot see anything that looks
build related edits (if you see what I mean)?
So unless my build/patch test procedure is flawed (and I have been using
these steps forever, with the additional make clean thrown in after the
patch apply, from David's advice a six or seven months ago)
Any advice, as always, gratefully received.
James
