I thought Istvan was changing *everything* over to doctests?  So how  
much of our total tests are commented out as a result of this?

I was expecting to have to merge my new tests into the new test  
framework myself, but it sounds like you beat me to this painful  
task.  My apologies!

?  I thought your lab had set up a Windows test platform for Pygr.  My  
lab hasn't set up a Windows test platform, because we thought you had  
already done that.  It's starting to seem like we should *both* set up  
a Windows test platform so that we can test our changes immediately to  
catch problems.  I think this is needed, because otherwise even  
trivial errors require "cycles of resolution" in which multiple people  
have to go back and forth to resolve them, which is time consuming.
