>Description:

tanaqui% pwd
/home/dholland
tanaqui% /usr/tests/util/sh/t_set_e
t_set_e: ERROR: Cannot find the test program in the source directory
t_set_e: `/home/dholland'
Exit 1
tanaqui% atf-run /usr/tests/util/sh/t_set_e
atf-run: ERROR: Cannot open Atffile
tanaqui% 

This behavior is not helpful.

It appears you have to chdir to /usr/tests/util/sh (or, apparently,
/usr/src/tests/util/sh/obj) to run the tests contained therein.

>How-To-Repeat:
As above.

>Fix:

chdir `dirname $0`?

State-Changed-Why:
Not really a bug, just unhelpful error messages.  Not closing so that
I remember to address this, as other people may be confused too.

 Just FTR, use the -s flag to specify a source directory different than
 the cwd.  I'm not sure how to address this yet.  Setting '-s $(dirname
 $0)' as the default would be OK if we can be sure that this works in
 all cases.
