So after a re-check, I'm constantly seeing 82 tests passed and a success
here. I don't understand what's differing, and would be interested in a
copy of your "run.out" in the "tools/testing/selftests/nolibc" subdir to
compare with mine, as it's possible we have a bug somewhere in the way
tests are run (or maybe we're still facing a mangled qemu output).

You can just send this to me privately, no need to spam the list, the
file is moderately large and uninteresting.

Thanks!
