Hey Robert!

Thanks a lot for the patches. I believe Chirag Jog who's
working on cleaning up some of the tests responded to you
offline already. I thought I'd let everyone know we'll
be rolling out an updated tarball once we have that
working.

What we'd like to do, however, is integrate these tests
into the LTP project. I'm hoping people will still find
it as convenient to use. Anyone foresee any issues with
that move?

thanks,
Nivedita
