I'm in favor of making it possible to test Lisp functions.
We can merge that capability into the existing Maxima
unit test framework by recognizing :lisp in test scripts.
I'm pretty sure a new, separate Lisp test framework is unnecessary.
At present run_testsuite barfs on :lisp in a test script, but that
should be relatively easy to fix.
