Godmar> What is newlib, if I may ask?

Right now, it's by invocation number, which, it Godmar> seems, would make such splitting hard to do. I just really don't want to have to write a description for every test. It just seems like a pain to me. I'm willing to go along with everybody if the consensus is against me, though. Godmar> See also my comments about the Thread.interrupt tests. I read this.

This can be put into a helper file if several tests require similar functionality, now that Anthony wrote the "Uses" code. Tom
