On a somewhat-tangential note, I run the jasonr* set of testers and just 
noticed that they haven't been producing results for 1.5 weeks or so. 
Looking through the logs, I see this error just after all of the 
submodules have been fetched:

The regression test script then aborts. Is there some kind of fix that 
needs to be applied here?
