Summary: Refactor test_frozen.py to use unittest.

Initial Comment:
This patch refactors test_frozen.py to use unittest.  When this patch is applied, Lib/test/output/test_frozen can be removed.

I am not sure if the last test case is named appropriately.  I named it testImportNonexistentFunction because I believe the code is trying to import a function __phello__.foo, which does not exist.  I may be mistaken.

Thanks for the patch!

It looks pretty good, but there is one problem I see.  There should be a
test_main() function for this to work from regrtest.  For example, take a
look in Lib/test/test_bool.py.  Also, I don't think you need to seek(0)
before getting the value from sys.stdout (ie, cStringIO instance).

I don't think you need to support sys.platform == 'mac'.  That was for Mac
OS 9 which is no longer supported (see PEP 11).  Mac OS 10 has sys.platform
== 'darwin'.  If you're interested, it would be good to produce a patch to
remove all (10+) occurrences of comparing sys.platform with mac.

I'm assigning this to Ronald just so he can verify the Mac OS 9 issue. 
Ronald, please comment and then unassign or assign to me.
