coreutils/tests/tail-2/assert
Jim Meyering 81ebd46046 * tests/tail-2/assert-2: Mark as a very-expensive test, because I
find the 7-second sleep annoyingly long.  Besides, this test is
probably far too specific and timing sensitive ever to trigger again.
* tests/tail-2/assert: Likewise.

# It would get something like this:
# tail: tail.c:718: recheck: Assertion `valid_file_spec (f)' failed.
# Aborted
