One more detail I forgot to mention:  To manually execute the smoke test 
(by loading smoketestdoc.sxw and clicking its "start smoketest" button), 
one must now load smoketestoo_native/$INPATH/bin/smoketestdoc.sxw 
(copied there by smoketestoo_native/makefile.mk) instead of 
smoketestoo_native/data/smoketestdoc.sxw.  Otherwise, the Basic test 
code in the document will not find the TestExtension.oxt next to the 
document, and the extension tests will fail.
