Ok, here's the problem. I'm using the testfarm code right from svn 
(http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/autotest) and starting the tests with 
startup/scripts/test-gnustep as advertised on gnustep wiki but this script 
only updates the core code from svn, not the testsuite. After manually 
updating the testsuite everything works as expected.

I don't know if it's the intended behavior but it's not really intuitive 
to me !

Anyway, thank you Richard.
