A better fix, IMO, is to recognize that the `test' package has become
a full fledged standard lib package (a Good Thing, IMO), heed our own
admonitions not to do relative imports, and change the various places
in the test suite that "import test_support" (or equiv) to "import
test.test_support" (or equiv).
I've twiddled the test suite to do things this way, and all the
(expected Linux) tests pass, so I'd like to commit these changes.
Unit test writers need to remember to use test.test_support instead of
just test_support. We could do something wacky like remove '' from
sys.path if we really cared about enforcing this. It would also be
good for folks on other systems to make sure I haven't missed a
module.
