Work in multiple places to improve state of the test suite.

With these changes, on my system now all the test sub-suites pass except
for the Twisted one (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ipython/+bug/504515 for
details on that one).

     This builds a dict with the minimal information needed to operate as a
     valid IPython user namespace, which you can pass to the various
     embedding classes in ipython. The default implementation returns the
     same dict for both the locals and the globals to allow functions to
     refer to variables in the namespace. Customized implementations can
     return different dicts. The locals dictionary can actually be anything
     following the basic mapping protocol of a dict, but the globals dict
     must be a true dict, not even a subclass. It is recommended that any
     custom object for the locals namespace synchronize with the globals
     dict somehow.
 
     Raises TypeError if the provided globals namespace is not a true dict.
 
     Parameters
     ----------
     user_ns : dict-like, optional
         The current user namespace. The items in this namespace should
         be included in the output. If None, an appropriate blank

         should be included in the output. If None, an appropriate
         blank namespace should be created.

         A pair of dictionary-like object to be used as the local namespace
         of the interpreter and a dict to be used as the global namespace.

         that Python doesn't clear it, rendering objects defined therein

         This method keeps said reference in a private dict, keyed by the
         absolute path of the module object (which corresponds to the script
         path).  This way, for multiple executions of the same script we only
         keep one copy of the namespace (the last one), thus preventing memory
         leaks from old references while allowing the objects from the last
         execution to be accessible.
 
         Note: we can not allow the actual FakeModule instances to be deleted,
         because of how Python tears down modules (it hard-sets all their
         references to None without regard for reference counts).  This method

       enables them to keep running after exceptions that would
       otherwise kill their mainloop. This is a bother for IPython
       which excepts to catch all of the program exceptions with a try:
       except: statement.
 
       Normally, IPython sets sys.excepthook to a CrashHandler instance, so if
       any app directly invokes sys.excepthook, it will look to the user like
       IPython crashed.  In order to work around this, we can disable the
       CrashHandler and replace it with this excepthook instead, which prints a
       regular traceback using our InteractiveTB.  In this fashion, apps which
       call sys.excepthook will generate a regular-looking exception from
       IPython, and the CrashHandler will only be triggered by real IPython
       crashes.

         Out[8]: 'hello'
 
         In [9]: print x
         hello

 """IPython Test Suite Runner.
 
 This module provides a main entry point to a user script to test IPython
 itself from the command line. There are two ways of running this script:
 
 1. With the syntax `iptest all`.  This runs our entire test suite by
    calling this script (with different arguments) or trial recursively.  This
    causes modules and package to be tested in different processes, using nose
    or trial where appropriate.
 2. With the regular nose syntax, like `iptest -vvs IPython`.  In this form
    the script simply calls nose, but with special command line flags and
    plugins loaded.
 
 For now, this script requires that both nose and twisted are installed.  This
 will change in the future.

 - Do not rely on specific prompt numbers for results (such as using
