 Simon wrote noting that two tests in `stranal/should_compile` didn't
 appear to be run in his testing. I have been able to reproduce this.

 A few observations:

  * There is a `setTestOpts( only_ways(['optasm']) )` at the top of
 `stranal/should_compile/test.T`
  * in a `validate` build `T13031` is skipped when run with:
     * `make test TEST=T13031 WAY=normal`
     * `make test TEST=T13031 WAY=optasm`
     * `make slowtest TEST=T13031 WAY=normal`
     * `make slowtest TEST=T13031 WAY=optasm`
  * When the `setTestOpts` call is commented out `T13031` is
     * skipped with `make test TEST=T13031 WAY=optasm`
     * run with `make test TEST=T13031 WAY=normal`
  * `optasm` is in the `config.run_ways` list

 I suspect what is happening here is that the `optasm` way is not being run

 To be continued...
