I have one machine running 2.1 and the other running 2.0. The 2.0
machine is much faster than 2.1. Should I forget about the POSIX 
testsuite on 2.0 and work on 2.1 instead? When 2.1 will be released 
to public? If the gap between 2.0 and 2.1 is too long, I think we 
should fix 2.0 for the POSIX testsuite.
