Hi Christian,

These tests should probably be removed, they are not used anymore (these were 
used before we switched to RubySpec).

The correct thing to do is probably make a macruby spec (under the spec/macruby 
directory).

How do you intend to change #framework exactly? Maybe you should work on a 
patch first, and we can iterate on it, then write the spec/test later.

Thanks for helping :)
