I am the primary developer for the test suite.  My intention was that
the test suite be used in any sort of project, open or proprietary, but
that the test suite source itself always be available.  This fits the PSL as
far as I can tell.  IANAL, but I suppose the "attribution" part of BSD would in
theory allow a user to find and use the test-suite to verify an implementation,
so it should be fine.  Comments?
