It's not currently possible to specify the top level test directory and 
run all tests in samevm or agentvm mode. I don't think it's possible to 
run the AWT tests in samevm mode for example.  If you look at 
jdk/test/Makefile then you'll see which areas can run in agentvm (or 
samevm) mode. It's something that I was chatting with Jon about recently 
and he pointed me to a patch from Mark Wielaard [1] that whitelists 
directories of tests that can run in samevm mode. I think Jon is hoping 
to integrate this, maybe extending it to work with the newer agent vm mode.
