Thanks!

I don't know if that test could be configured to run buildbot from the
build directory, but as written you're right to note that it could
accidentally test an old buildbot.  The test is really checking how
well the new format of buildbot.tac works with twistd, and that the
'buildbot' executable creates that file correctly.

If we assume that tests are run in a virtualenv, with 'python setup.py
develop' in effect, then the test is fine.  But I don't see another
way to run this test effectively.
