Comment 1 for bug 1338899

Implemented in http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git;a=commitdiff;h=ae8a6fde

For convenience I built an autopkgtest deb with that feature:

   http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/tmp/autopkgtest_3.1pitti1_all.deb

it'll still be some days until that lands in utopic through the autosyncs. Unless there is any urgency, then I can upload it directly.
