Right after I leared about the disabled attribute on classes (
http://codespeak.net/py/current/doc/test.html#disabling-a-test-class)
I tried to use it in the body of a test function.  I don't know why I
thought that would work, but I did. ;)

Now, I change the names to disabled_test_whatever().

Take care,
