Thanks for the info.
If you like, please install patches to un-XFAIL the tests on platforms
that don't need them. It is better for users to see XPASS than XFAIL,
though. The goal is to make `make check' something users can do
before installing the software; unlike us they don't just know which
failures are "OK".
I don't think we need to move the tests around on the branch. We
should do that on the mainline though, if it makes sense.
Thanks,
