There are two official ways to run tests:
- "make test" for beginners
- "./python -m test [etc.]" for experts

runtests.sh serves no useful purpose and had completely outdated reporting, making it potentially confusing for newcomers who would try to test it. I therefore propose to kill it.

As far as I could tell it is left over from the pre-unittest days and not completely updated.  A few people may miss it, but they'll learn :)
