Thanks you for an easy one! ;-)

All tests are run twice.  The code in each test file is run once
uncompiled, then once compiled.  Both are counted.

The idea is to catch breakage in the byte compiler or interpreter,
where one of them does something different from the language
definition but the other gets it right.  I don't know if this has ever
actually identified a bug. :-)  Aidan?
