Details:

As part of its install, the dicom package includes test scripts in the
${prefix}/test directory.

Running these tests on the installed and loaded dicom package prints a bunch
of addpath warnings, presumably because the tests are normally run in the
source tree


warning: addpath: ../inst: No such file or directory
PASSES 4 out of 4 tests
warning: addpath: ../inst: No such file or directory
warning: addpath: ../inst: No such file or directory
PASSES 5 out of 5 tests
warning: addpath: ../inst: No such file or directory
PASSES 3 out of 3 tests
…


It would be nice to avoid these warning messages when the tests are run on the
already-installed package. Maybe just add 'if (isfolder ("../inst"))', or
assume the directory is in the path and leave it to the makefile to set
correctly when developing.
