I have to agree with Derick and others: The current behavior was chosen
on purpose. The tests should run in every environment, with all
operating systems and all ini settings else either the test or the

In the cases where special ini settings are needed they can be set just
few are fix (especially error reporting) and the current situation is a
clear feature.
