Actually, the other failed test in the original thread was due to a  
mismatch, but the testNoMerges failure mentioned below was using the  
same source for both /sw/bin/buildbot (first in the path) and the  
source directory.

Basically, I built rc2 once, telling it to install and skip the test  
phase. The second time, I told it to build and test (and due to the  
test failure, it stopped there).

The test is invoked by "PYTHONPATH=. trial buildbot.test" from the  
source directory. Is there another way I should be doing this? That  
fails the same way as if I just run 'trial buildbot.test' from the  
command line, so I think testNoMerges is not currently tripping over  
the installed/not-installed issue.
