So it turns out that we had a number of bugs in the logic that propagated the --verbose/--set-log-level options through the test infrastructure. One of them was, for example, that the effective log level was not correctly passed to the testcase subprocesses in Python tests in parrallel mode. Now that this is fixed, it turns out that we hardly ever use debug-level log messages in our Python tests; using --set-log-level=INFO dumps enormous amounts of text into the log files, where it should really only have added command tracing. I guess there's now an opportunity for fixing that. -- Brane
