Ah...
I figured out why now... I hadn't seen your recent changes to main.c.
Thanks,

was/is it you intension to force all StandOff testing though the Algebra back-end (added "-A" option for pf; see below), i.e., ignoring/overruling the compile time default / choice (whch is indeed the Algebra back-end) as well as the choice on the Mtest.py command line?
If so, why? Does MPS not longer support StandOff (or v.v.)?
If not, you should remove the "-A" swicth for pf, again.
it was my intention to switch to the algebra backend, but from the testweb I probably incorrectly assumed that the milprint-summer version was still the default for pf. (i thought i saw only the artists query failing when i looked at the testweb this morning) I will remove the -A, again. The StandOff aces should still work with MPS.
- observation: order of attributes seems to have changed in some tests, the testoutput has been changed accordingly
Serialization in MonetDB/XQuery has not feature (yet?) to enforce a particular attribute order. The order of attributes is only determined by the very implementation and (physical) order of input data, and can hence change. If it happens to differe between the MPS & ALG back-end for (some) StandOff tests, we could consider approving back-end specific (ALG or MPS) stable output for these tests. (See `Mtest.py --help` and/or http://monetdb.cwi.nl/Development/TestWeb/Mtest/ for details and/or feel free to ask for advice/help.)
I assumed (again probably incorrectly) that the milprint-summer version is deprecated. I'll create separate test-results.
Thanks for observing my errors. Wouter
