I agree with James in that the test are badly written. A better fix would
be to use a real testing system. I working on that as well. It would be worse
just to fix these tests and not others as this just adds to random chaos that
already exists in the source tree of ATS. I am working on presenting a better
test setup for ATS ( unit testing and a fix for TSQA), as well as trying to fix
the build and source layout. This has to be done correctly and in baby steps
with a plan.
However the main fix here was not to fix badly written and apparently
rushed tests, but solve use of values that break ATS from being checked out on
file systems that don't allow certain values in the file name. This is only a
small fix of many we need to clean up ATS infra.

> traffic_via has a test directory which file uses names with a : in it. This
> value will not work on shared drivers as : is an illegal character. This
> makes certain cases in which it is nice to check out traffic server on shared
> drives impossible. fixing this to not use : would make life better.
