I get the impression from a short dismissal like that that this script
is pretty hated :-(.  Remember that originally the script was trying to
make the result of combining separate .sum files the same as the .sum
file you'd get for -j1.  As Jakub said upthread, that's a lost cause
with the new approach to parallel testing, but I think the comment was
valid while matching -j1 was still a goal.

Thanks,
Richard
