regression suite

I would love to have a regression test suite for apache.  Many things are
hard to test, but there's enough that are "easy" to test that it'd be
worthwhile.  For example many aspects of configuration are easy to test. 
So are many aspects of protocol support.  It's just hard testing the
reliability and loading aspects of the code -- it's hard to force signals
to occur at the wrong time, and buffers to fill up, and so on. 

I mention it in case someone (new or old) is sadistic and wants a pet
project.

ideally I'd like to be able to:

cvs checkout apache-regress
cd apache-regress
make test-protocol test-config HTTPD=/path/to/httpd/to/test

I can dream ... :)
