[PVFS2-developers] PVFS Request Type testing

[Phil Carns]

I think the module.mk.in file in test/io/job has an example of what you 
need.  job-help.c builds into an object that a couple of those old tests 
need.

You would probably want to use LIBS instead of SERVERLIBS on the build 
rule, but other than that I imagine it is nearly the same.
