There are classes of problems that our test suite simply isn't designed to catch. For example: - We won't catch 'premature kill -9' bugs (r1494298) - We won't catch concurrency bugs (r1302613) So, no, running "make check" under more configurations (despite still being an improvement) won't make me more confident that FSFS7 is in release-shape. It simply doesn't test enough code paths. Daniel
