Tweak to hints/machten.sh: stop t/lib/complex.t from failing

Tim, this patch, posted to you and copied to p5p on 23rd September, and
posted to you again on 10th October, seems to have slipped through your
net.  Please please please put it in before 5.004_04.  (Copied again to p5p
this time in the hope of achieving better reception through multipath
diversity.)

Thanks
