You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The test suite uses the current X server to execute. This is a problem
for folk doing interactive builds (and also folk using flymake and
similar just-in-time background qa tools).

Using xvfb should permit most X needing code to execute without using
the current X server. I *think* xvfb supports GL extensions and so
forth, but this needs checking. Tests that need human observation
obviously can't be run in this mode; they should run in the current X
server [for now].
