Ah, yeah, I see. It is a very useful testing library, but I could
take a look at rolling my own alternative. Unless there's a way
to make it acceptable for us with bitbake. Would creating a
recipe for it be enough? Or just skip the tests if mock isn't
available?

Yes. I was planning to do that after our discussions on IRC, but
haven't gotten around to it yet. Will hopefully do that before
going on vacation on friday.
