  Rolled back a subset of partest to use StreamAppender and avoid
io.Process. No review. ........ r21817 | dragos | 2010-05-05 19:59:21

  Tightened what gets specialized: only when the type parameter appears
at top level, or as a type argument to a Java array. For example T,
Array[T] cause specialization, but List[T] does not. Resurrected
spec-matrix, forgotten among the disabled tests. No review. ........

  Removed some logging and prune CollectMethodBodies to not traverse
more than necessary. No review. ........ r21826 | extempore | 2010-05-06

  r21829 | extempore | 2010-05-06 18:37:13 +0200 (Thu, 06 May 2010) | 5 lines

  Rolled partest back to r21328. Attempted to make the minimum changes
necessary to plug it back in while preserving everything which has
happened since then in tests and such, but we should be the lookout for
overreversion. Review by phaller (but as a formality, I don't think it
requires direct review.) ........

+If you're looking for something to read, I suggest running ../test/partest
+with no arguments, which at this moment prints this:
+
+Usage: partest [<options>] [<test> <test> ...]
+  <test>: a path to a test designator, typically a .scala file or a directory.
+          Examples: files/pos/test1.scala, files/res/bug785
+
+  Test categories:
+    --all          run all tests (default, unless no options given)
+    --pos          Compile files that are expected to build
+    --neg          Compile files that are expected to fail
+    --run          Test JVM backend
+    --jvm          Test JVM backend
+    --res          Run resident compiler scenarii
+    --buildmanager Run Build Manager scenarii
+    --scalacheck   Run Scalacheck tests
+    --script       Run script files
+    --shootout     Run shootout tests
+    --scalap       Run scalap tests
+
+  Test "smart" categories:
+    --grep         run all tests with a source file containing <expr>
+    --failed       run all tests which failed on the last run
+
+  Specifying paths and additional flags, ~ means repository root:
+    --rootdir      path from ~ to partest (default: test)
+    --builddir     path from ~ to test build (default: build/pack)
+    --srcdir       path from --rootdir to sources (default: files)
+    --javaopts     flags to java on all runs (overrides JAVA_OPTS)
+    --scalacopts   flags to scalac on all tests (overrides SCALAC_OPTS)
+    --pack         alias for --builddir build/pack
+    --quick        alias for --builddir build/quick
+
+  Options influencing output:
+    --trace        show the individual steps taken by each test
+    --show-diff    show diff between log and check file
+    --show-log     show log on failures
+    --dry-run      do not run tests, only show their traces.
+    --terse        be less verbose (almost silent except for failures)
+    --verbose      be more verbose (additive with --trace)
+    --debug        maximum debugging output
+    --ansi         print output in color
+
+  Other options:
+    --timeout      Timeout in seconds
+    --cleanup      delete all stale files and dirs before run
+    --nocleanup    do not delete any logfiles or object dirs
+    --stats        collect and print statistics about the tests
+    --validate     examine test filesystem for inconsistencies
+    --version      print version
