i just checked out Mauve, including this Runner, restarted Eclipse and 
tried it and it (still) works!

i did see the symptoms you're describing when (a) the built VM had 
problems; (b) the VM was not configured properly; e.g. not picking up 
the correct Classpath classes; and/or (c) the environment variables 
--defined in this Runner-- are not being picked up.  in these cases, 
the Mauve scripts would run, but no test class is selected for the 
"runner" script to run them.

the best way to debug why nothing is being written to mauve.out is to 
add some 'echo ' statements in batch_run, choose-classes and runner.  
also, on line 119 of the batch_run script, invert 2 and 1 so you can 
see the stderr output on the Eclipse console.

finally, did you create the symbolic link to mauve-classpath keys file?
