B/c apparently no one testing the candidates found and reported the problem.

Anyone have any ideas on writting the test suites?  Maybe even just some 
windows batch files?  Or Perl? Or whatever?

I'd be willing to run such tests against various x86 OSes (that can be run in 
Virtual PC.)  I don't really want to spend the time initially writting and 
debugging them though.  I'll help fix / patch modify any current scripts out 
there though.
