I did quite a lot of work on this yesterday, they got pushed late at
night.  The issue apparently came when the process isn't connected to
a tty, I first noticed it when trying to build a Debian package from
inside emacs.  If you run emacs, you can start it from the build
directory and do this:

  M-x c o m p i l e RET C-a C-k m a k e SPC t e s t / e x t r a . s t a t u s 
RET

And see the result there.  After my changes, the tests pass, even from
within emacs.  At least on Linux, I hope it will be the same on
Windows.

Did it say anything else?  mtn_setup is defined in lua-testsuite.lua,
which is (or should be) loaded by extra-testsuite.lua.

stephen_leake> Reading thru tester.cc, I can't see where the testlib is loaded.

Makefile create run_extra_tests, have a look in there :-)

Cheers,
Richard
