We can re-arrange the directory structure.

Ok. I just have two concerns.

First, I would prefer a directory name that was less obfuscated. It is 
not immediately obvious what a directory called "ibtp" contains. If 
the directory was called "test", then it would be clear.

Second, I'm not clear on why this code should go under the trunk but 
the tools in https://openib.org/svn/gen2/utils should not. I had been 
thinking that all of the code under the trunk was intended for end 
users. I'm not sure if that is the distinction though. Perhaps the 
ulps, users, and utils, directories in https://openib.org/svn/gen2/ 
are out of place.
