I've just committed the updated assertions for all of chapter 2 in 
tck-audit.xml.  This is a good test for how significantly the TCK is 
going to be affected by the spec changes, as the changes in this section 
are quite tame compared to some of the other sections.  As a result of 
the changes to this section, we now have about 45 unmatched tests which 
I don't think is too bad.
