Actually most deletions are renames, that git just did not pick up, 
because of the immense
changes in the tests.
I could add two patches:
1. rename (And delete old testrunner stuff and runtest entries)
2. Apply all changes

This should allow better review of the actual changes, at least for most 
tests.
