Hi Mark,

Thanks for all the info on the Gentoo build.

Regarding the PYTHONPATH modification in run_tests.in, you'll want to
add the existing value of PYTHONPATH to the TAIL of the path, not the
head, otherwise you'll be testing an existing GNU Radio installation,
not the new stuff in the build tree.

Use:

  PYTHONPATH="$swigbld:$swigbld/.libs:$swigsrc:$py:$PYTHONPATH"

Not:

  PYTHONPATH="$PYTHONPATH:$swigbld:$swigbld/.libs:$swigsrc:$py"
