Agreed: using `test/fixtures' is preferred.  The reason why the
ssh/scp/sftp tests are using the current user environment is because I
was unable to direct ssh/scp/sftp to `fixtures', but perhaps we should
try again...

For these and other cases, maybe we can make a subdirectory:

    test/fixtures/shared/

containing shared fixtures (and move `test/fixture1' there as well).
