maybe wasn't quite fully baked.  I'm not terribly on board with that,
because it's likely to be hard to disentangle who broke what.
But in particular, it's clear that partition_prune and
isolation/checksum_cancel are showing big problems.

Daniel is working on investigating the isolationtester thing. See a mail on one of the threads where initial indications were the "atomics with no real atomics" (or whatever you'd call it) were to blame. We could redo that thing without atomics to get rid of that (and possibly should), but it would be good to figure out if it's actually broken first, so that part can get fixed if it is.
