Actually, while reading through test-lib.sh I found those expr expressions
quite difficult to understand, and my primary intent was to make the code
more readable. Furthermore, as you can see in the hunk that touches
test_known_broken_{ok,failure}_ that the $(( )) construct is already in
use, so it's also a change to improve consistency.
The shorter runtime (primarily on Windows) is just a nice side effect,
although the gain probably vanishes in the noise.

Last time I tried -j<something> it bailed out early. I didn't try again
since then. Sequential tests finish in 30-40 minutes here, but I don't run
SVN tests.
