Hi Berny,

I deliberately chose to keep those categories separate.
That is why README-release suggests to set both variables.

If you want to run that test, you could just set RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes.
If you want to change the meaning of RUN_VERY_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes so
that one does not also have to set RUN_EXPENSIVE_TESTS=yes to run all tests,
then please change it everywhere.
