This runs the tests over and over and over again until I forcibly break 
out of pdb:

./make-test --pdb tests/test_xmlrpc/test_user_plugin.py

Also, just a nit, but it makes releases easier, don't include the ticket 
number in the first line of the commit, just include it somewhere in the 
body. I have to strip those out when I create the release notes.
