Sounds like a good idea; except that if tests do depend on each other,
then I would want to see their logs in that order, too. I don't think
this can easily be inferred from within the test driver.

True. 'less test-suite.log<RET>/^FAIL' of course works too. Maybe this
is after all less of a worry for now. Let's see what general feedback
on this is if we just keep the summaries.
I've pushed this patch to the ad-parallel-tests branch now.
