Hi Rene,

Looks like you saved the day. The approach works like a charm.

I'm still a bit confused by the regression.py, run_tests.sh and
library_test_all.sh scripts
which all seem to do the same thing in a different way: run the tests.
I'm now using the run_tests.sh script (tests haven't finished yet,
though) and I'm
eagerly looking forward to the results file (wherever I'll find it...)

Thanks a lot,
Stijn
