Hi Dave. That looks really useful. I haven't tried it [1], but
especially if you could update it a bit to live under
subversion/tests/cmdline and figure out its arguments automatically, I
think we want this.

There are all sorts of things in it (addresses 127.0.0.x springs to
mind) that other people can refine or parameterize once they start to
use it.

Cool. It would be good to separate the test code from the
infrastructure, of course, but that's not essential at first.

No problem relying on svnmucc for this: that can be a requirement for
running these particular tests.

Thanks.

[1] I have trouble setting up Apache - seems my whole package management
is hosed. :-(
