 The `cabal test` output is a bit too noisy.

 My original request was for the Cabal output (such as "Running 1 test
 suites...") to be prefixed by ">>>" and the test output to be kept
 verbatim.

 This is not quite what happens now as you see above.

 Here's my new suggestion: since Cabal normally doesn't prefix command
 output, we should not do so in the test output either. Just output stdio
 verbatim from the test and don't prefix anything with ">>>".
