Feature #759
Configuration: where to keep source for test compilations?
Description
I have noticed that sometimes more than 1 script needs to perform a test compilation (using essentially the same source code). Devise a way to avoid duplicating the source of these test programs.

Some scripts contain the source code inside themselves (as here-documents), others rely on an external existing (in an expected place).
The advantage of here-documents is that moving the script around should not break it. Those scripts which use an external in a "known place" need somehow to know where that place is (via an arg?) -- remember that during execution of a script the working directory is that of the caller!
Currently here-documents seem to be preferable, even though they may result in duplication of test source code.

I think all scripts use here documents now.
Anyway, this issue can be closed.
