There are three minor issues that keep me from picking this

Add comment:


# The genprotimg arguments for the cck changed over time so we need to 
figure out which argument to use in order to set the cck

I'd like to have a \n here as well

Hmmmmmmm(TM)

My first thought was that I'd be pretty angry if the CCK changes on a 
distclean. But the only scenario where this would matter is when the 
tests are provided to another system.

I'm still a bit torn about deleting the CCK especially as there will 
always be a CCK in the SE header no matter if we specify one or not.
