 new  
 Priority:  major                                                |   Milestone: 
 4.1.0
Component:  infrastructure                                       |     Version: 
 4.0.x
 Keywords:  testsuite, installation, PREFIX, CHICKEN_REPOSITORY  |  
-----------------------------------------------------------------+----------
 When running the testsuite, it will try to load system libraries from the
 egg repository at the PREFIX that was set during compilation.

 This is the ''future'' location where Chicken will be installed.  This
 means the tests will fail when running them prior to installation, and
 there's no Chicken at that location yet. Also, if there ''is'' a Chicken
 there, the tests will run with the new Chicken, but with libraries from
 the old Chicken, producing false results.

 By adding {{{export CHICKEN_REPOSITORY=${TEST_DIR}/..}}} to runtests.sh,
 this problem can be fixed.
