And "make run-user" says "124 test(s) passed", which looks promising.

But "make run" says "0 test(s) passed".

(They initially both said "0 test(s) passed", but that was because I
forgot to build qemu-x86_64 after an upgrade.)

Please see below for the full output of "make run".  Am I missing
some other package?

							Thanx, Paul
