If we begin shipping pypy without a py.test that is known to work with it, then some year in the future some poor soul (maybe me) who happens to want to run an old verion of pypy -- say a hypothetical pypy 1.5 that comes with no included py.test -- may find that your latest and greatest py.test does not run the tests. And then it will be a matter of archeology to find out what version of py.test does work with this release. Is there something wrong with this understanding?
