I have what may be a related problem. I have a branch that changes
some translations help text, changes the "Continue" button on help
pop-ups to read "Close" and also changes the help pop-ups so they
point to the right location for the CSS files. So, nothing major going
on, really.

Each time I run the test suite in ec2, the suite dies when it hits the
Windmill tests. It just hangs. Anyone seen that before? The branch, if
anyone's interested, is:
