Yes, got me there. It was a real PITA to debug that thing, given that the tests were written in the spirit of Malbolge. So the easiest method to debug it was for me to "-i -v" the test, run it again with "STOPI=$n .. -v", and work out what was the intended behaviour, and whether to fix the test or the logic.

Will clean up.
