Actually, I was thinking about taking these two (possibly with Ævar's "download with https://, we are in 21st century" change to make them 3-patch series) and fast-tracking.

The homebrew specific "packagers can take a bit of time to catch up and we may see hash mismatch" and other tweaks Ævar has can come on top once we see the basic "any parts of tests can fail and the rest can still be tested, why does it have to be world-stopping if we fail to install p4?" working.

Thanks.
