As a side note, if you rerun the testsuite checking, the tests don't
actually rerun unless you "find . -name '*.out' | xargs rm" across the
build tree. Even then, the old log-test-* should probably be removed or
moved out of the way so we don't 'tee -a' into that logfile and get a
double error listing.

I was testing with 'debuild -nc' by removing the check_libc stamp.

Should there be a removal of all the *.out files before running the
tests?
