Ok, I'll have a patch ready by then.  I'm not sure which number family I
should take for the tests, 8xxx and 9xxx don't have any rules for their
use, but the [89]0xx area seems taken.  Would naming them 91xx be good?

Also, the tests can be extremely slow since they rely on svn, so there
will be a way to skip the tests if users are not interested.
