There is something to be solved here.  Anecdote:  I sucked an early version
of Greg's textwrap.py module into my build directory.  After he checked it
in, I changed regrtest.py to use textwrap.  This kept failing with baffling
errors, until I realized I was still picking up an incompatible textwrap.py
from the build directory.  So I got rid of the latter.  Somewhere in
between, I synched my desktop and laptop machines and so got another copy on
my laptop that way, which I didn't notice.  When I got home and synched the
laptop back to the desktop, it then restored the deleted testwrap.py to the
desktop machine, and I got the same round of impossible errors all over
again.  I deleted it from home machine again, but the next time I used my
laptop to run the test suite got the impossible errors yet another time --
and had synched the machines again in the meantime so that it once again
showed up on the desktop disk.

So there's one use case <wink>.
