Whoops!  I completely forgot to include this fix into the release/2.3
branch.

I did think consider this, but ended up applying them to release/2.3 as
well.  My thought is that once we start having more unit tests included,
we should be able to at least add some of those tests to the release/2.3
branch too.  There are code which is refactored so much it won't be easy
to do, but there are also plenty of code which haven't changed that
dramatically.

I see these first patches from Jens as framework (or infrastructure)
patches, it doesn't mean we commit ourselves to adding unit-testing to
release/2.3, but it gives the possibility to do so.  Our 2.3 releases
will continue to live in parallel with the future 2.4 release for quite
some time.
