I was wondering about hacking the scripts a bit to make the configurations
tested less intertwined with the code, as I'm testing different configurations
on FreeBSD and Debian, and it's getting a pain to keep having to copy the
configuration bits back into the new version of the test program.

Also I suspect that I may be wanting to test a 4d grid of permutations rather
than the current 3, I might like to add another test that changes cflags
(so make the -DDEBUGGING slightly more general), copy the perlio/stdio test
when -Uperlio (rather than running 2 tests) and experiment with tree cloning
using hard links rather than make distclean)
