Comment (by davidsarah):

 As nejucomo points out on #tahoe-lafs, it's ugly to need to run the tests
 with the base of the distribution as the current directory. Perhaps there
 should be an explicit option to tell 'tahoe debug trial' where the code it
 is supporsed to be testing is. (It could request to be rerun with that
 option if the current directory does not look like it is a Tahoe
 distribution.)
