I got this failure when running 'perl Configure.pl --test=build':

t/steps/auto/gc-01.t ........................ 1/8
#   Failed test 'Got expected verbose output'
#   at t/steps/auto/gc-01.t line 45.
#                   ' () '
#     doesn't match '(?-xism:\(ms2\))'

#   Failed test 'Got expected value for 'gc_flag''

#          got: ''
#     expected: '-DPARROT_GC_DEFAULT_TYPE=MS2'
# Looks like you failed 2 tests of 8.
t/steps/auto/gc-01.t ........................ Dubious, test returned 2 
(wstat 512, 0x200)
Failed 2/8 subtests

However, this is likely to be a limitation of the test rather than a 
flaw in the branch's code.  I will try to look into this in the next day 
or two.  In the meantime, it should not be considered a major impediment 
to the branch's progress.

Thank you very much.
