There seem to be rather a lot of test failures in the Continuum build.
According to the test case these should only occur 1 in 1000 runs, but
they are occurring much more frequently than that. I don't know if
this is due to a test case error, or whether there is actually a bug.

I don't think this is a blocker, but perhaps someone else could have a
look and see if there is anything obvious that needs fixing.

Cannot do a formal test of the RC at present; but hopefully can run my
tests in about 24 hrs from now.
