Guess not :-/

Why not <<yum update>> towns.toronto (1) and then run:
  ./TestRunner -r 1000 frysk.proc.TestExec
on that (and your machine) to see what happens (I think phil is done 
with the machine).  From last time, it may not be that test, just that 
that was the last flushed output :-(

Chris, you've a dedicated machine right?  Can you set up and try 
similar?  Something to just repeatedly run the frysk tests.

(1) On second thoughts, perhaps don't, my last two yum-update attempts 
on towns appear to have hung :-/
