As I said, the tests can be switched back on by the developers who want
to test that code.  So, all of your testing can run those tests.

The autobuild process is used as a gatekeeper for getting good
code/tests into the tree.  It doesn't help you when I test critical
components of the AC DC and flakiness causes my autobuilds to
fail! You don't even notice it... but I do...  :-)

peace & happiness,
