I will try posting mine today or tomorrow. I need to check them first
as it has been a while since I last updated that branch.

No; the testsuite is not public. I can however check patches you or
I procude with it; but bear in mind that this does not equate to an
official blessing since this is a spare-time project of mine :)

I would suggest completely omitting the checker from an initial release
as the most common usage pattern is Simplifier (+ Victor) + user rules.
