I'm not applying this patch for two reasons: 1) I spent 30 minutes trying to get SWTBot installed and running, I gave up. It doesn't want to run in my Eclipse. Heck, I didn't even get as far as running, I couldn't get it to install far enough to get the project to compile. 2) I really want to avoid remote network access during JUnit tests. Now that we have our own server process we can run it over a pipe or something to do this test. Or at worst, bind to a random port on the loopback and have the client clone from that port. -- Shawn.
