Good suggestion.  Too bad I forgot to do it for my most recent run.

This was the first run since a reboot.  It took 8.1 hours.  This
suggests that a reboot makes things faster.  Shades of old-style
Windows medicine.

About that run:

nflog-01-global failed.  Different number of ping packets noticed (10
became 8).

newoe-18-clear-block failed.  Different number of ping packets sent (3
became 2).

xauth-pluto-20 failed.  No OUTPUT directory was even created.  This is
a new test.

****** invalid test xauth-pluto-20: directory /home/build/libreswan/testing/pluto/xauth-pluto-20 not found

(This may have changed.  I was testing the tree as it appeared this
morning at about 2:00 AM Toronto time.
