PackageCompiler fails tests

[rprechelt]

I just performed a fresh Julia install and was attempting to use PackageCompiler to compile_incremental some packages. When that failed, I attempted to run PackageCompiler's tests.

When I run pkg> test PackageCompiler I get the following errors,

FixedPointNumbers ColorTypes: Error During Test at /home/rprechelt/.julia/packages/PackageCompiler/oT98U/test/runtests.jl:12
  Got exception outside of a @test

ERROR: Package PackageCompiler errored during testing

The failures appear to be reported from FixedPointNumbers. However, when I run pkg> test FixedPointNumbers, all of the tests pass successfully.

My Julia version info is below:

Any help would be appreciated.

It looked like the previous release (v0.6.3) passed CI.

[KristofferC]

Should pass tests now.
