I think we had it in 'make check' for a while, but I seem to remember that people complained about things like the disk space that some of the tests needed for temporary files, and some exotic systems didn't support sparse files or something like that. There is still 'make check-block', but nobody uses that. If you want to add it back to 'make check', I wouldn't object (but others might). Kevin
