[RFC] fix unittest issues with busted 2.x

Followup of https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/1098#issuecomment-54712118

This is on top of @fwalch's commit because these scoping issues don't occur with busted 1.x.

Regardless of what's going on with busted, it's probably a good thing to avoid global scope. 

ping @aktau because this touches the lua C preprocessor and I'm hoping there's a chance you might have a clue why `popen()` is being weird.

No worries, I'm glad I have an idea of what's going on in there now. cmake still baffles me though.
