This.  I haven't looked at the test-suite since it was new, but I remember
thinking it was going to be a pain to set it up in a such a way that I would
be able to basically drop in my existing configs and run tests to make sure
everything continued to "just work" for my existing clients, let alone test
new features and patches, etc.  Right now, it's faster and easier to
basically just compile the new version on a test machine and copy the
configs over to it and see how well my existing client systems will work
with the new changes.
