The former was non-trivial because of other changes that happened to the master in the mean time, including regenerating code, so I introduced a temporary branch "integrate-rewrite" for this. I didn't look at the parent structures of the commits.

(summarising IM conversation with Erik)

It looks like some functionality from master was lost in the "merge".  e.g. the ability to run the tests on any number of processes.  This suggests to me that other changes may also be missing.
