Hi Andreas,
  Yes, I agree that committers should run full regressions (i.e. all quick
tests that are verified daily on Zizzer, right?). I ran quick regressions
that are configured correctly, and they pass with this patch.

  The problem with running all quick regressions currently is that many
tests don't run out-of-the-box, and I haven't found instructions on how to
set up tests like the cpu2000 and FS tests. I made a request for such
information in this thread, though I haven't yet seen response:
https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16328.html

  I'm totally willing to run all the quick regressions and update as
appropriate, but I'd like more information on these. How does one set up FS
and cpu2000 tests? Can we include Linux binaries in the tests/ directory so
those tests can run out-of-the-box? Can we change the cpu2000 tests to some
other benchmarks without distribution restrictions, so they too can be
included in tests/?

  Thanks,
  Joel
