Ok. Thanks for the information. The previous changes have been essentially
reverted. I've added one of the four packages, test-simple, in what I hope
is an acceptable way: as a subtree.

Please double check that test-simple has been added properly. When that is
done properly,  I'll do the others (load-relative, loc-changes, and
realgud) in the corresponding fashion.

I make mistakes. That's why I work on debuggers.
