The problem I was describing in the JIRA is that all but the last 2 tests
in this suite are designed to test the pool / fairness mechanisms (i.e., that
the output of rootPool.getSortedTaskSetQueue() is correct), not the scheduler
code. I think the right solution here is to move these tests into a separate
test suite specifically for the pool stuff -- not to make these tests use the
scheduler (since using the scheduler obfuscates where the actually error would
be if the tests failed).
