Yeah.  I just thing "if [ -f smbtorture4 ]; then run_samba4_tests.sh fi"
is enough.  Volker's comments about what should and should not be
expected to pass are valid though.  That is a bigger issue.
IMO we should only run those tests that are expected to pass rather
than trying to filter the output.  This probably means modifying
smbtorture some to group tests differently.
