Perhaps Cyril already said this, but I suggest just getting one or two
of the tests merged first then working through the rest.

This reduces the iteration time and batch size.

At least in terms of what you submit to the mailing list. Perhaps if it
gets to the point where most tests pass review first time, you can
submit everything remaining.

Also note that submitting this many new tests, once they are merged we
will probably get failure reports (including compilation failures). It
will make life easier to stagger that.

I'm going to mark this patch-set as changes requested in patchwork.
