Let me try to recapitulate what you want:

    * Lose the summary section
    * List only unexpected results (FAIL and XPASS)

Right?

One more detail: Does an XPASS mean the tests should fail (i.e., exit
with non-zero)?

I'll bow to the majority opinion (strange, you seem to be a one-man
majority :-), and fix things as soon as I get these answers. Then I'll
add an XFAIL mechanism to the C tests, just to be consistent.
