    If anyone is interested in running the LTP test suite exactly as it
    works in OSDL's STP, I've prepared a package of what we use that will
    run without requiring a full STP install.

    In Short:
    =========
       * Go to http://sourceforge.net/projects/stp/
       * Go to the 'stp-tests-lite' link in the Files area
       * Get test_execution_wrapper-1.tar.gz
         + Untar it
         + Install ala 'perl Makefile.PL; make; make install'
       * Get ltp-wrapped-20040506.tgz
         + Untar it
         + cd into the LTP directory
         + execute it via `sh ./wrap.sh`
       * Results and logs will be in the results/ directory

    Description:
    ============
    The ltp-wrapped package is basically a verbatim copy of the ltp-full
    release, plus a few extra scripts for using it within automated testing
    frameworks, gather logs, and generate reports.

    The test_execution_wrapper package is a collection of a few bits of STP
    that the ltp-wrapped package requires. Specifically: a shell script to
    set some environment variables, and a timeout handler script that kills
    the test if it runs past its allotted run time.

    Most of this is really only relevant to STP - if you're just interested
    in running LTP straight, this wrapped ltp doesn't add anything special.
    But if you want to be able to compare your runs specifically with LTP
    runs in the STP system, this lets you generate the exact same set of
    reports and behaviors as would happen on an STP client machine.
