Regarding the tests: I had them running for the 1.6.6 build and back
then they all passed successfully (except for those ones which are
XFAILs, i.e. expected to fail). Even if they take long, I wouldn't ship
a subversion build w/o running them all. That's a lot of testing
coverage which we - as a distro - get for free.

The build/test runtimes are also documented in the GAR Makefile.
