Doesn't sound right, I'll have to agree.

The retest procedure should use the same parameters as the normal tests,
but your experiment shows that it might not. Just to verify this, could
you try modifying the ~hobbit/server/ext/bbretest-net.sh script and add
"--check-response" to the bbtest-net command in there  (after the "cat
$REDOFILE") ?
