back out 46b59c35: add VERBOSE environment variable

I would have to put this into the environment for test suites to
pick up when -v is given. But I don't like putting it into the
environment of tests; they might react to it. At the same time I
do not want to manage, i.e. clean, the environment for tests.

Therefore, I think I want to pass -v(v) to test suites on the
command line after all.
