I think running the whole test suite with this enabled is going to
provoke complaints from buildfarm owners. That's too bad, because I
agree with you that it would be nice to have the test coverage, but it
seems that many of the buildfarm machines are VMs with very minimal
resource allocations -- or very old physical machines -- or running
with settings like CLOBBER_CACHE_ALWAYS that make runs very slow. If
you blow on them too hard, they fall over.
