Well, I love to run the tests with V=1, especially as soon as one of the
tests hangs. But the output of the bios-tables-test really breaks the
well-formatted output of the test framework in that case, so adding a
V=2 debug level is IMHO a good idea. But if I'm the only who's annoyed
by the current output of the bios-tables-test, feel free to ignore me ;-)
