Like anyone wants to spend their life guessing what reload() actually
does <0.6 wink>.

Figuring out why that happens is pretty much a nightmare. "Fixing it"
requires changes to both regrtest and test_warnings:

The change to regrtest may fix other -R cases (for example, it appears
to repair test_decimal), but may introduce new failures too. If you
try it and find it's a net win ;-), feel free to check it in.
