This means there is a test isolation problem in either 
Products.CMFDiffTool or Products.CMFEditions. Those are the only 
packages in that group. You can see the same results when running:

   $ bin/test -s Products.CMFDiffTool -s Products.CMFEditions

I saw this error before, when trying to move packages between the 
alltests groups. It would be awesome if we could figure out what causes 
this, because it would solve other problems as well.

Though, we can always run the packages in full isolation. This is 
something we do for a few packages, even though I'm constantly trying to 
get rid of those.

@jensens: we are almost there. Putting my criticism about the process 
aside: Thanks for your work! :)
