The tests that are not passing are some Python ones.  They have to do
with how Python is embedded in the package.

This one passes:
Open up KiCad.app, and open up the Python scripting console. Type
import pcbnew and press enter. It shouldn't show an error. Verify that
the build date of Pytohn is the same as the build date of the package.

But these three do not.

Open up pcbnew.app, and open up the Python scripting console. Type
import pcbnew and press enter. It shouldn't show an error. Verify that
the build date of Python is the same as the build date of the package.

Open up the terminal, and run
kicad.app/Contents/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/python.
It shouldn't show an error. Verify that the build date of Python is
the same as the build date of the package.

Open up the terminal, and run cd
kicad.app/Contents/Frameworks/python/site-packages/;
../../Python.framework/Versions/Current/bin/python -m pcbnew. It
shouldn't show an error.

These tests have worked for months!  Embedding python in a more
correct way is the whole basis of why I redid the packaging for V5
*sigh* :)  I checked them when I built 5.0.0-rc3, and I double checked
them now.  5.0.0-rc3 worked fine.

I am currently suspecting changes in the build scripts since July
5th--even though they all look innocuous.  I am now doing some
differential builds to see what's causing the problem.
