  It was worse than that. :-) When I started DejaGnu, there were only 7
of us in all of Cygnus, and the GCC team wanted a way to cross test, so
it got used daily while under heavy development. Plus none of us (me)
really knew how cross testing needed to work, which is obvious in the
code. :-) Sorry...

  My daydream is to analyze the current functionality, write a true
design doc, and write a new python based implementation. :-) We need
something that'll last another 30 years, and last I checked, Tcl has no
maintainers...
