Yes -- those are almost all very out of date, not reproducible
at all and don't cover very many of our systems, because we
don't have a good mechanism for writing tests that need
to be built for the target architecture. I'd like us to
have a setup so that it's easy to say "just add a new test",
rather than accumulating more random images on the wiki...
