Nice tool.
Some remarks. You can build high resolution timer support without the extra lib package from the HRT sourceforge site. You need a recent glibc and some quirks in the source. See the cyclictest program I'm using. http://www.tglx.de/projects/misc/cyclictest/cyclictest-v0.8.tar.bz2
It would also be cute to add tests for the PI support for pthread_mutexes.
