New description:

 Several projects we depend on use nose to do self-tests.  In order to test
 these packages, we'd have to have nose installed.

 This is fairly simple without an spkg:

 {{{
 wget http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/n/nose/nose-1.1.2.tar.gz # or
 the latest version at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/nose/
 tar xzvf nose-1.1.2.tar.gz
 cd nose-1.1.2
 sage -python setup.py install
 }}}

 However, it might make sense to have nose be an optional spkg.

 Matplotlib relies on nose to do tests
 (http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/devel/coding_guide.html#testing), as
 well as numpy/scipy
 (http://projects.scipy.org/numpy/wiki/TestingGuidelines).

 ---------------

 New spkg:
 [http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/palmieri/SPKG/nose-1.1.2.spkg
 version 1.1.2],
 [http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/palmieri/SPKG/nose-1.1.3.git20120614.spkg
 version 1.1.3 from git]

 Apply [attachment:trac_9921-nose-scripts.patch] to the scripts repo.
