without that check, in theory our test runner will tolerate
a non-zero return value, like throwing or failing an assert,
which is not what we want....
guess these happenend to get in by forgetting to
add this check when switching a test from PLANNED to TEST
due to the new automatic string conversion in operator<<
the representation of objects has changed occasionally.
I've investigated and verified all those incidents.
- the tests covering threadind support and object monitors
are located in the backend test-library and linked against liblumierabackend.so
- some fundamental facilities of proc-layer moved from the library tree
into the basic components tree, since *testing* them requires at least
to link against liblumieracommon.so
