Summary

This test currently expects omp_get_thread_num() to return 1 and 2, effectively requiring three threads. 2-core machines only seem to spawn two threads, preventing omp_get_thread_num() from returning 2. This patch changes the expected thread numbers to 0 and 1 so that it passes on 2-core machines.

This fixes the last issue in the x86_64-linux-gnu-debian8 build of the 3.8.0 release.

Please note, that I don't know OpenMP very well. I don't think this changes the nature of the test based on what little I've read of the spec but I could be mistaken.

Suggested change does not fix the test reliably, because it will still fail on a single processor machine.

I am sorry if I broken some rules here, but I have committed more reliable fix for the test (revision #258695) so that
(1) it now passes on any number of processors, and (2) it runs in 1 sec instead of in 10 sec in initial implementation.

I don't think it makes much sense to have threads to spin 10 times per 1 sec in order to check the barrier, much smaller delay is perfectly enough (I've reduced it to 10 x 0.1 sec).

Feel free to comment.
Thanks, Andrey.

Thanks for the quick response. As you say, your version fixes more cases than mine does and also speeds it up.

Abandoning this review since a better fix has been committed.
