If ts-examine-serial-pre was run more than once (which happens by hand during development, for example), it would reuse the same ids (which is not idea for manual testing, since we normally want to know if the last run was good). Instead, generate new cookies each time (and overwrite the old ones in the runvars).
Also, it owuld keep adding new copies to the grub menu entries (obscuring the actual interesting menu text completely). Instead, prefix the mentries with a fixed string so they can be stripped out again. They now look a bit sillier after one run, but less silly after several.
