Tom, keep in mind that we are working on this. The tests were originally
just some files I used to develop with. We are now making them become
part of the source tree. The warnings should be gone by now, except for
the ECPG warning that is supposed to come out. Maybe we remove that
line.

Joachim didn't want me to commit his SoC stuff before he finishes work,
but I felt this is the better way because we get some testing on other
architectures/OSes so everything should be up and running come release
time.

Strange, works well on my Linux system. However, I tried correcting the
option but I'm unsure if it works for you now since both versions worked
for me.
