+\r
+Hey, Dmitry. Thanks so much for reworking Pieter's original test suite\r
+improvements. I think this new approach is a bit less invasive and a\r
+little more elegant to work with.\r
+\r
+I've looked through the patchs, and they all look ok on first glance\r
+(barring any possibly needed modifications that I'm not seeing). I have\r
+a couple of comments to follow.\r
+\r
+However, when I tried to test the tests with the patch applied I ran\r
+into one problem. If I try to run the test suite with dtach\r
+uninstalled, it looks like I'm experiencing a hang on\r
+emacs_deliver_message call. I wonder if either emacs_deliver_message or\r
+test_emacs is not doing the right thing in the case of no dtach. I\r
+think emacs_deliver_message should somehow not require dtach, since it's\r
+not actually testing any display stuff, but because it's currently using\r
+test_emacs, it is somehow implicitly depending on it. Any thoughts on\r
+how to fix that?\r
+\r
+jamie.\r
