[fpc-devel] Test fix

[Pierre Muller]

Hi,

   I add the IN_TESTS conditional code to avoid getting timeout related failures,
inside testsuite.

   I didn't notice that more than one iteration was needed for bfloatfunc.pp,
because I tried it with ITERATIONS=1 and it seemed to finish without failure...

   I have no objection to your patch, please go ahead and commit.

For tests/bench/bcase.pp, I had to set ITERATIONS To $10000
to avoid errors...

   Just one small remark: why do you use '$8' instead of simply '8'?

Pierre
