Comment (by zooko):

 Replying to [comment:30 davidsarah]:
 >
 > I propose that we should only perform this cross-check when one of the
 version-checking options is used ({{{bin/tahoe --version}}}, {{{--version-
 and-path}}} or {{{--debug-version-and-path}}}), or when {{{setup.py
 test}}} or {{{setup.py trial}}} is used. In the latter case, it should not
 stop us running tests.
