This has caused me some trouble and I'm not sure it is a good way to go, in general.

I'm counting now about 10% of the tree build time spent on compiling<br>
stuff in collects/tests. Probably a large part of that is the eopl<br>
tests, since most of the other big tests already disable compilation.<br>
I could just add the info file to avoid compiling the eopl tests, but<br>
I prefer to just disable compilation of all of collects/tests, so that<br>
future additions will not need to be dealt with individually. In the<br>
past there were objections to doing that because compiling the tests<br>
has some testing value too -- but it seems that drdr is now completely<br>
filling that role.<br>
