+ Test that the $ROOT variable is used according to the Package
+ Manager Specification (PMS).
+
+ All currently-approved versions of the PMS state that the $ROOT
+ variable is legal only in the pkg_* phases. One common misuse is
+ to use $ROOT instead of $EPREFIX as "something more general than a
+ front-slash" in the src_* functions. We want to detect these
+ mistakes, and eventually eliminate all uses of $ROOT outside of
+ the PMS-defined pkg_* phases.
