+Verify that the Repy sandbox parses command-line arguments correctly.
+For example,
+  python repy.py restrictionsfile my_program.r2py --logfile ABCDEF
+
+must *not* result in the sandbox consuming the ``--logfile'' arg and 
+writing the vessel log to the named file. Instead, the sandboxed 
+program should see the arg.
+
+We test this by calling repy.py with arguments similar to the above, 
+and a no-op (empty) RepyV2 program. 
+If repy.py creates the named logfile, this is an error. If the file is 
+not created, we take this to mean that the sandboxed program gets the 
+argument (although we don't check this specifically).
+
+Note: This test overwrites / removes files from the current working dir. 
+The chosen `program_name` and `logfile_prefix` should be unlikely to 
+clash with anything you created, but you have been warned.
