I noticed several of your commits were wholesale test disabling.  That seems fundamentally a bad idea.  The submits suggested that they were OSX specific issues, but the disable was for all platforms.

I think the ultimate solution to this includes:

1. Availability of the test suite to everybody;

2. Availability of a build farm with all supported OSs.

Until we have the two, I think it's reasonable to help one another with platform-specific matters. I only have access to OSX right now and the whole banana builds and runs unittests smoothly. While I apologize to everyone for causing grief, it's in our interest that we get work done and checked in.
