On the way, we gained a bit more than 5% on the classical master/slave
example. More to come on this in future releases.

* We fixed a large amount of bugs all around
* We sanitized the way configuration is handled internally.
* Complete regression testing framework so that you can trust the tool
* Lot of neat new modules in the XBT toolbox

* the tesh auto-tests "fail" on Mac OSX. This is because "rm -rf" is
sometimes too verbose (when the OS creates hidden files, I
