 Attached is the first stab at getting something from the test suite
 running in Android.

 * there is no /tmp on Android, there is /data/local/tmp for root and the
 shell user
 * no use in testing the user ID stuff, Android apps cannot ever change
 users


 To get the full suite running, there will need to be larger changes:
 * either switch Python code to plain ''sh'' or hack to get Python running
 in Android emulator
 * port ''sh'' scripts to Android, it is not a full UNIX environment, so
 things like ''printf'' and others are not always there.
 * the shebang will need to be settable to `#!/system/bin/sh` or the tests
 need to be executed using `sh test_keygen.sh`
