Last time I tried that with a 16kB-size block, which was some months
back, make check complained about some plan inconsistencies. Perhaps
that's somethin

Robert,
Justifications are:
- we may test different combinations of file and block sizes, for the

Avoiding a compilation for each combination of values seems to make sense.
- the same binary can be used on the same host
