Provided we also remove teachpacks/htdp/testing, there are no errors
from setup-plt; so removal seems safe to me.

What would happen if we threw it out now (on the trunk, not on the

So does htdp/testing ... (test) . Why are we deprecating htdp/
testing
again?
The functionality doesn't need to (and isn't) going away.
All htdp/testing does is reexport items from the other library,
but unlike
test-engine/scheme-tests it can easily be added by students as a
teach pack.
If a student does this, and then calls (test) manually; all of
their test
results appear twice. Why is this a desirable behavior to have?
Why should
we be letting students add this as a teach pack?
I remembered that it was a re-export of functionality. I had
forgotten about
the testing-twice part.
Let's print "deprecated, require test-engine/scheme-tests" instead
from
htdp/testing. And by 5.0 we throw it out.
