        I was wondering whether we could not hook the existing crash-reporter
SEGV code, and dump the 'backtrace' output in a file-name pulled from an
environment variable (that we could easily set in the makefile rule).
But of course working from the core file we can get more information &
post-mortem debugging / inspection in theory.

        Lovely :-)

        So - (for me) the only missing piece now is the ability to quickly (ie.
< 12 minutes) get back to running precisely the failing test;

        Is it easy / possible to print a message at the end (after all this
goodness) saying:

        "run:\ncd sw; make foo_baa_sw_subsequent_check_baz_biff_boff"

        ? :-)

        Thanks again for this - a really big improvement :-)

        ATB,

                Michael.
