One of these also fails under msys, but in a different way.

I got 50 more tests converted, and got mingw/msys installed, and the
empty_environment tests works there now. The cvs tests have trouble with
cleanup because the cvs that came with my mingw seems to like making
read-only repositories. So what's next is to fix the cleanup code to
deal with this.

This also takes about 26 minutes when compiled under mingw, while the
old testsuite takes about 7 hours.
