Excellent. Though if you have a bit of free time, as a service to other 
folks who will certainly hit the same problem, it'd be great if you could 
go back to the original problematic setup and figure out how Apache-Test 
could have avoided it in first place, or at worst knew how to signal to 
the user what exactly is the problem. We are here to help if you have any 
further questions. Thank you, Ron.
