Log message for revision 41300: Partially-working new instructions for running the tests. The functional tests don't even try to run, but at least this exercises 6724 of the unit tests. Someone who understands how Zope3 testing was changed to work from a zpkgtools-based install should be able to figure out how to improve this.
