One last comment about this new file. To not look like boring I let 
pylint say that for me :) :

[wainersm@localhost qemu]$ pylint-3 
tests/acceptance/machine_arm_canon-a1100.py
************* Module machine_arm_canon-a1100
tests/acceptance/machine_arm_canon-a1100.py:1:0: C0103: Module name 
"machine_arm_canon-a1100" doesn't conform to snake_case naming style 
(invalid-name)
