I've thought about that a lot over the past two years.
Eyeballing it, probably 70%

We don't use the nested hierarchical TestSuite stuff at all (and take pains to flatten the hierarchy), and some of the reporting we've modified pretty heavily; the rest we use most of. Because of the (partial) refactorings of the internals that we did its not a quick 'diff'. :)
