As this test spins a new accessor thread for each available processors, on machines which feature an high number of available processors (because of multi-threading), and which are slower in forking new threads (e.g. Windows), the test can sometimes timeout.

I've looked at the test logs quite in depth, and there's nothing suggesting that something else is amiss - the number of concurrent threads just seem to be too high in some instances.
