Yes.  I have no objection to adding more test cases post-beta1, but
I'd like to have the buildfarm green through the weekend.  This isn't
the best time to be debugging-by-buildfarm.

If you like, you can try the @contrib_excludes addition that was mentioned
before and see if that fixes it.  But if it doesn't, it's time to cut our
losses.
