OK Many thanks.

Cheers, the test does almost no IO at all: it's all floating point math, 
with about a 10 line summary printed to stdout at the end, so I guess we're 
all clueless together.

Let's see what the next run brings, if it still fails I'll look again at 
spitting these tests up even further.
