Yeah, we're cheeting. We assume SBRK is on, which does the necessary mallocs
for TLSF during the unit tests. In 'real life', you can set the initial pool
when using the deployer, which offers command line options to manipulate that
size, or need to call the Orocos tlsf initialisation functions yourself.

Afaikt, the failure in #28 is a known bug the test exercises. I think I
removed it in 2.2.1. Failure in #7 might be due to the corba-ipc-server
process not being started (we start it from the CMakeLists.txt script when
make check is run).
