These changes have broken the buildfarm adaptation work in different
ways on different platforms.

On Windows (but not Linux), the install_test_files are apparently
getting installed under runpython in the build directory rather than in
the tmp_install location, so those tests fail. Meanwhile, it's not clear
to me how to install them in a standard installation, which means that
on Linux the corresponding -running tests are failing.
