We don't run enough test, don't report the bugs we do catch and don't
handle it. It's all sad, but unfortunately just piling even more onto the
BAT pile is not going to help anyone - as is the results are already
pretty close to useless. The idea behind BAT really is that it runs real
fast, and that it's a gate for a more extended testcase. If we add tests
until it's real slow and still broken, no one wins at all.


Unfortunately I can't tell you how to get out of this mess either :(
