It would be great if we could improve the error reporting for
this kind of failure, incidentally. I fairly often get
intermittents where there is nothing useful in the log
files, just one of these "too few tests run" lines (and
perhaps somewhere miles back up in the build output
interleaved with that from the other tests being run
in parallel with the one that fell over, there might
be more information, but it's basically unfindable).
