Personal preference.  I'd like to run both series of tests, sometimes 
attended, sometimes unattended.  It's fine if a generic/ test crashes 
the PC while running unattended, but I'd much rather the xfs/ tests have 
first crack at that.

My version of the syntax was `./check xfs/[0-9][0-9][0-9]`, but that 
becomes rough when skipping tests.  I'll still try your version, but 
irrationality and frustration have driven me to simply adding a "mls" 
group to all of the tests/<fsgroup>/group files, then hoping that a 
`./check -g mls` would run everything in the correct order.  That led to 
trying to figure out why the generic/ tests were running first, and so 
on and so forth...

Thanks!
