Uh, okay. So this is weirder than I thought it was going to be!
So, if you move the debug configuration up above the _verify calls,
you'll see the message printed out to the debug stream:
DEBUG:qemu.iotests:iotests debugging messages active
WARNING:qemu.iotests:281 not run: not suitable for this image format: raw
...but if you omit the `-d` flag, the message vanishes into a black
hole. Did it always work like that ...?
(I'll keep looking. --js)
