Change the test so that test support program modules resides in
distribution directory tlib directory instead of the lib directory.
Because they are no longer in the lib directory, test support files
will not be installed as a pre-condition for the test of this
module. The test of this module will precede immediately. The test
support files in the tlib directory will vanish after the
installtion.

3.7 Possible problems and known errors
There is still much work needed to ensure the quality of this module as
follows:
* State the functional requirements for each method including not only
the GO paths but also what to expect for the NOGO paths
* All the tests are GO path tests. Should add NOGO tests.
* Add the requirements addressed as *# R: * comment to the tests
* Write a program to build a matrix to trace test step to the
requirements and vice versa by parsing the *# R: * comments.
Automatically insert the matrix in the Test::TestUtil POD.
