This test is flaky, it sometimes fails for me as well.

Strangely, increasing the value of 'updatetime' makes it worse.
It may even fail on all attempts.

I suspect the startup isn't completely done when the autocommand
triggers. Let's first wait for Vim to come to a stable state and then
trigger the autocommand.
