Did this change the behaviour of 'make check-avocado' ?
Previously it would continue the whole test run even if one
test timed out; now it seems to abort the test run when the
first test times out.

I don't object to the current behaviour, but is there some
command line option I can use to force avocado to complete
the whole test set even if there are failures or timeouts?

('make check-avocado' for arm targets has some persistent
intermittent timeout stuff still, so I generally prefer to
eyeball the failures and ignore the stuff I know is flaky.)
