Thanks David for considering this.  I am OK with your plan, though I'm 
worried about loosing the test suites.

We have put a lot into the test suites, and it seems like porting them 
will be pretty hard.  I've also noticed that Emacs dev breaks CEDET 
tests semi-regularly so they would benefit from them.

If Emacs core is ok adopting the wide range of tests even though many 
predate the latest Emacs testing infrastructure, then we should be in 
good shape.

I rely pretty deeply on the test suite, particularly since it is much 
easier to just hit 'make' to validate parser changes than to pull a 
fresh parser back into a running emacs.  Unsure how the Emacs group 
would like having new targets just for testing CEDET.
