Yeah, that's much better but the Python test results are still wacked:

I had another crazy idea for the regression logs: I have a set of
regexps that allow me to parse error messages from all our compilers
for filename and line number.  Why don't we use that to have the error
logs link to the file where the error happened?  I don't know of a way
to get it to scroll to the right line unless we copy the files and
embed targets in 'em, though, so maybe it's not worth it.
