Hi Darshit,

that's a good point.

A make check -j4 just takes a few seconds on my machine, so I wouldn't mind. 
But yes, there might me much slower machines...

Some tests require to have $top_srcdir in the old test suite as well 
(e.g.Test-proxied-https-auth.px). How do you execute these directly ?

I don't have the sources here, I'll take a closer look at it on Monday.
