Cool, thanks!

I've updated the tests/OMakefile slightly, however there is still a 
fundamental problem with it - currently it assumes the success is 
signaled by the exit status. Instead, we need some framework for 
comparing the actual result with the expected ones. For example, in some 
of the tests that are currently considered "failing", OMake is 
_supposed_ to die (e.g. exn/Test1). In some, the point of the test is to 
see if the output is what we expect it to be (all the awk tests), in 
some - whether the right targets are created...
