Thanks for your efforts in all this -- long overdo. From the list
above, you are referring ONLY to the running of the Google tests I
take it as your remark "AOO builds". I think item #8 would be our
highest priority at the moment.

Can you elaborate? IMO, nothing should be committed that breaks
builds, especially as we are gearing up for 4.1.2. It would be
difficult to test potential late additions to 4.1.2 if we have
broken builds on our main branch.
