Yes I tried to do that, but it didn't seem to work. I have put my
original attempt - what I would like to do - in the v2 patch series. I
will come back to this later but hopefully someone can just point out
what is wrong.

I originally had it there, and then decided to move it since I was
concerned that we might want to define an os layer which doesn't do OS
calls, but perhaps communicates over a network link to a remote test
controller, or uses expect scripts to run tests. However, this is pie
in the sky at this stage so I am changing back to arch, as you
suggest.

Regards,
Simon
