     I added a test pattern to the casefile tests which detects the
     main problem that had to be fixed.  If you're happy with that,
     you could remove the big-input-2.sh test, which does take a
     really long time compared to the other tests.


Although big-input-2.sh now passes, running it under valgrind shows
that there may be some problems lurking still:
