Yes.  Stale files would be counted in.  The fact that aggregate-results.sh 
is called when running "make" in t/ is a sure sign for me that you should 
not muddy waters by making unnecessary changes that break the default 
usage from time to time.

So I really, really, really, really would like that patch _not_ to be 
applied.

And I really would like to be able to spend my time on other things than 
discussing this at more length than necessary.
