I just pushed this change.

... and this one.

I've also addressed Frank's concerns about starting/stopping the server 
in the top level Makefile. This is now done in systemtap.exp. There were 
also problems reported with 'make check' not having the correct PATH. 
This should now be fixed as well. Finally, EXTRA_TOOL_OPTS is now simply 
TOOL_OPTS, so you test using the server as follows:

make TOOL_OPTS=server check

'make check' now passes for me using the client/server except for the 
attached failures which are due to the test harness changing the 
environment after the server has been started. i.e. these tests require 
changes to the environment which the server does not see because it has 
already been started before any tests are run. Not sure what to do about 
that. Make them XFAIL for client/server? Stop and restart the server? 
(not an option if the server was already running).

I'll now see how 'make installcheck' does.
