Not sure this is the best idea - when repair on an aged test device
takes 10s, this means the test harness overhead increases by a
factor of 3. i.e. test takes 1s to run, checking the filesystem
between tests now takes 30s. i.e. this will badly blow out the run
time of the test suite on aged test devices....

What does this overhead actually gain us that we couldn't encode
explicitly into a single test or two? e.g the test itself runs
repair on the aged test device....

Cheers,

Dave.
