Well, I knew FLINT still ran its test suite and given we updated MPIR
I do prefer for it to run. There was also no 3.4.2 ticket to turn it
off :p.

In Sage 4.0 I will hopefully have a more flexible system for testing
so that people who don't want to run the "mandated" testing can turn
it off more easily.

Originally FLINT 1.2.5 was supposed to go into 3.4.2, but while
testing it I saw a doctest failure in some cohomology code and I did
not feel like tracking this down since the main change in FLINT 1.2.5
was the update to zn_poly 0.9 (which contained a fix that was supposed
to resolve the problem completely). The issue that popped up might
also be a padics problem since 2/3 of the doctest failure has been
resolved by the new zn_poly, I guess we might find out in Sage 4.0 or
4.0.x. ;)
