You really should, yes.

Nothing as far as I can see.

"region"? Assuming it's Erlang being unable to allocate more
memory, you should run the same test case (big_binary) in BEAM
to determine if the problem is HiPE-related or not.

(Just c(big_binary) followed by big_binary:test() in the Erlang shell.)

etc etc

These aren't actual errors. The test suite is checking that
exceptions etc and timeouts work, and while doing this the
system prints some error messages. Unless the test suite
reports them as failed there's nothing to worry about.
