We're about halfway now, and it looks like the top will be quite
close, and things may be decided on the tie-breaker. However, the
tie-breaker sometimes needs extra digits to see the difference.

In the test-program this was foreseen, and you get 4 digits in
the score-output. But PGAS was not updated, the internal database
there uses 2 digits. So if PGAS shows equality, you may in fact not
be equal.

The current "real" hole top scores are:

factorial:
Rick Klement: 48.0811
BoB:          48.0777

postorder:

Stephen Turner: 49.0913

So whatever PGAS shows, each hole has at this moment only one real leader.

Also notice that the test program is at version 4 at the moment. A few
more obscure testcases have been added, and all 9999 cases for factorial.
You probably want to upgrade if you don't have the latest version yet.

Some things you can do with the latest version:
- run only selected holes, just give as argument enough letters to 
  uniquely specify the hole:
     tpr04c.pl f
  Will run only factorial
- Run a non-default program
     tpr04c.pl -p f=fact.py
  Will run both tests, but use fact.py instead of factorial.pl
- By default it only runs about 40 tests for factorial. If want all 
  tests, do:
     tpr04c.pl --full
- You can also run only a restricted testset of
  particularly interesting numbers:
     tpr04c.pl --brief
