Very nice. In fact, this is good enough to bridge us to when
winetests will be ready. Esentially, winetests should just
present a nice user interface and the extract/run/email/cleanup
automatically.

So yeah, now the focus should be in post-processing these results.
Also, Jeremy can we setup a mailing lists/alias to where
the results should be sent? This way we have a well-known entry
point (e.g. wine-tests-results at winehq.org) and we've broken down
the problem into simpler parts:
   -- creating the testing bundle (we'll need to integrate that
      in our build process, and regularly post fresh binary
      on our SF download site)
   -- the generation of the results is covered 80% by Feri's
      script, and work is underway to create a nice UI for it.
   -- post-processing the results, and generation of a nice
      HTML page (this needs integrating on WineHQ as well).
