Well the point of using the configure-runtime was that it would run when it was 
the “main" program so that exact-decimals would work in the repl, but if this 
file was required as a library, it wouldn’t set the parameter for the other 
program.

But should the tests be thought of as the “main” program when they are being 
run?
